BEIRUT, Dec. 1 (Xinhua) -- After over a year of conflict, 40-year-old Laila Sheet was happy to learn of the Lebanon-Israel ceasefire, which took effect early Wednesday. However, it didn't take long before another cruel reality manifested itself.
Israeli machine gunfire and artillery shells are still preventing thousands of displaced Lebanese from returning home. Now Sheet's village, Kafr Kila, has become a place within sight but out of reach.
