Protesters take to Beirut streets

Violent crowds have taken to the streets of Beirut to protest against the Israeli bombing campaign against Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Hundreds of angry protesters attacked the UN building in the centre of the city, pelting it with stones and smashing windows.

The violence follows the deaths of at least 40 people in an Israeli air strike in the Lebanese town of Qana.

The Lebanese prime minister has refused to meet US politician Condoleezza Rice.

Rice cancels trip to Beirut

Lebanon officials told U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice Sunday they would not meet with her until the 19-day-old Israeli offensive ends.

Lebanese officials said Rice, who was to have flown to Beirut Sunday afternoon, was informed of the decision after an Israeli airstrike killed more than 65 civilians, mostly women and children, in the southern Lebanon village of Qana, CNN reported.

Speaking in Israel, Rice confirmed she would not go to Beirut and said it was "time for a cease fire."

A U.S. official in Washington said the cancellation of the trip was "unfortunate," CNN reported.
