WASHINGTON, July 17 (Xinhua) -- The United States
said on Monday that it has moved a total of 64 Americans out of Lebanon and is
preparing to evacuate the Americans in the country in largescale.
Among the 64 people, "the majority of those people have been private citizens who have expressed a desire to
leave Lebanon," with a small number of Americans working at the embassy, State
Department spokesman Sean McCormack said at a briefing.
"We have started the process of moving people out in
groups of tens. What we hope, in the very near future, is to start moving people
out in groups of hundreds ... we're moving from tens of people leaving at a time
to hundreds of people leaving at a time.," the spokesman said.
There are about 25,000 Americans working or living in
Lebanon.
The U.S. move came after the face-off between Israel
and the Lebanese group Hezbollah escalated sharply in recent days. Dozens of
Lebanese citizens have been killed and more than 100 wounded in Israeli raids.
Israel has suffered casualties as well. Enditem
