NAQOURA, Lebanon (AP) - French soldiers landed in Lebanon on Saturday,
the first reinforcements for an expanded UN peacekeeping force tasked
with keeping the truce in the Israel-Hezbollah conflict.

Two inflatable dinghies carried the first of nearly 50 troops ashore
from two French warships anchored in the Mediterranean near the
headquarters of the United Nations Interim Force In Lebanon, or
UNIFIL, in Naqoura, about five kilometres from the Israeli border. Two
French military helicopters hovered over the rocky, emerald green bay
where the peacekeepers landed.
