Compensation

The Lebanese government has paid compensation to domestic workers killed by Israeli bombs in during the July war.

The Israelis had refused to accept responsibility for the deaths of Vijitha Mallika Liyana Gamage, Mihottige Ruwini Shashika Perera, Joseph Ranjani, Kandappuge Asoka Ranjani and Jayakody Arachchige Kalyani.

The plight of the long suffering workers was made worse during the war.

Meanwhile Israeli war planes are on the prowl again.
