Eyewitness emails: Hizbullah hits Israeli warship


When I last sent you an email, Hizbullah just hit an Israeli ship, right next to us; we can see it from the dorm. We saw it burn and sink from here on TV and we can see the other boats surround us more. Everybody was panicking and running and I just shut my computer and gathered my things as we could see the ship sinking. My dorm is right next to the sea. Although the American University of Beirut (AUB) is pretty safe, right now the fighting is in Beirut, not the south anymore. So now israel is going to hit residential areas in Beirut.
