Belgrade is now in darkness for as far as the eye can see.

I'm now seeing many detonations, ... There's one huge fireball nearby and I can see several plumes of smoke from still other detonations.

The gravitational effect of the decapitation of the regime in Baghdad 24 hours ago has rippled right up here to the north, as was the hope and the expectation of allied coalition commanders.

This is a tremendously large crowd, the size of which is unprecedented in Lebanon's modern history, ... It is truly massive and cannot be ignored.

There was a tremendous explosion, ... I can confirm that the top floor, the roof of that building where this array of antennas was situated, has been attacked.

I think what I'm seeing here is the largest civilian casualty toll since the beginning of NATO airstrikes. I saw quite clearly that these were civilian homes. ... I saw body parts inside these buildings.

A scene of complete destruction.

I haven't seen anything on this scale in Beirut since the dark days of the civil war.

I can see a lot of debris, a lot of rubble in what is a civilian area. There is a considerable amount of damage.
