Lamentable

Those on the ground in Israel and Lebanon have nowhere else to go.
As each side targets the other it's the vulnerable that suffer most.

Again yesterday, more children were killed in attacks.

The bible is full of laments. When the psalmist writes, "by the rivers of Babylon . . . I lay me down", he is not merely calling in lament; this is also a cry for help.

There will be laments in Israel and Lebanon for years to come.
