BEIRUT INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, BEIRUT, LEBANON - 1983/10/24: American Marines search for survivors and bodies in the rubble, all that was left of their barracks head quarters in Beirut, after a terrorist suicide car bomb was driven into the building and detonated, killing 241 US servicemen and wounding over 60. The American military was in Beirut as part of a Multinational Peacekeeping force. The Islamic Jihad, later to become Hezbollah, a militant organisation, claimed responsibility for the attack that coincided with the bombing of the French military headquarters at the eight-story 'Drakkar' building..
