Targeted Assassinations and Car Bombs

Reflecting the continuing state of chaos, war, and political struggles, car bombs and targeted assassinations continued throughout this period. The Lebanese, Syrian, and Israeli armies, as well as militias, were arresting people arbitrarily based on their political or family affiliations. In some cases, these arrests were either followed by summary executions or enforced disappearances. Many cases of torture also were reported.
