PM to debate military moves Prime Minister Ehud Olmert will convene the security cabinet at 9 P.M. Monday to approve the Israel Defense Forces' continued operations in Lebanon. The IDF will present ministers with plans revised on the basis of a cease-fire that is expected to be announced this coming weekend. The military on Sunday night implemented a 48-hour suspension of aerial activity, in the wake of a strike on a south Lebanon building, in which at least 56 people were killed, more than half of them children. IDF ground operations will continue as before, however, and the army aims to complete the destruction of Hezbollah positions along the border by Thursday. A government source in Jerusalem said the United Nations Security Council, set to discuss the war Wednesday, is likely to announce Friday a cease-fire that would go into effect Saturday. Before the evening cabinet meeting, Olmert will hold a security consultation meeting with Defense Minister Amir Peretz and senior defense establishment figures. He will also meet separately with Peretz. At 7:30 P.M., Olmert will give a speech to a conference of local municipalities in which he is expected to praise the fortitude of the home front and will discuss the strengthening of communities hit during the war.
