| Lebanon rocket hits northern Israel |

| [Al Ahram] A rocket fired from Lebanese territory hit northern Israel on Monday, the army said, after overnight rocket fire from both Syria and Leb. "At least one rocket fired from Leb hit an open area north of Nahariya," a coastal city not far from the Lebanese border, the army said in a statement. No casualties or damage were reported, it added. The army said it responded shortly after with artillery fire "towards the launching site" of the rocket. A rocket fired from Syria hit the Israeli-occupied sector of the Golan Heights late Sunday, falling on open ground and causing no casualties, the army said. And early on Monday the army said that "several rockets were fired from Leb at the western Galilee, one hitting an open area," with no damage reported. The army said Israel responded with artillery fire at Syrian military posts and that "hits were identified" and that it also shelled the source of the fire from Leb, lodging a complaint with UN peacekeepers. Sunday's fire was the first of its kind from Syrian territory since Israel launched a fierce air campaign against Gazoo on Tuesday with the stated aim of stemming a rising tide of rocket fire by Paleostinian bully boys. But rockets fired from Leb struck northern Israel on Friday and Saturday, without causing casualties. Military officials said they believed the attacks were carried out by a small Paleostinian group in an act of solidarity with Gazook bully boys. |
