REUTERS ¨C Brothers Ali and Wael Sabbagh stood facing the remains of the building that contained their family home for more than 50 years.
The site was pounded into rubble by Israeli strikes last week in an attack that killed their mother, their brother?and ?the family¡¯s helper.
Their grief has been compounded by their inability to properly bury their mother and brother ¡ª a ?plight shared ?by other families from south Lebanon. Unable to head to their ancestral lands to honor ?their dead, they are forced to bury them temporarily in Beirut until it becomes safe enough to allow their remains to be moved to their final resting place.
