Another friend reached me via a short e-mail: "Thank you very much for your concern. Until now we are fine but the situation is really bad. We cannot believe what is really happening. In such a short period of time, We feel isolated and subjects of bombs shells at anytime. No Airports and most of the bridges are down. I hope the situation will end soon."
This friend lives outside of Beirut in Batroun. His sister owns the restaurant on the beach where you can dine on the rock out in the ocean. The port Batroun was the target of a bombing to take out the harbor to prevent entry and exit.
