Fragile Cease-Fire Photos

A collapsed building, caused by an Israeli air strike about two weeks before the cease-fire, lies on the ground in the southern suburbs of Beirut, Lebanon, Monday, Aug. 14, 2006. Hours after a U.N.-brokered cease-fire took hold, thousands of Shiite refugees returned to disaster-stricken neighborhoods south of Beirut to check on their homes.
