3 Rockets Fired from South Lebanon toward Israel

[AnNahar] Three rockets were fired Thursday from southern Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
toward Israel, Lebanese security officials said, amid an escalating fighting between Israel and the turban Paleostinian Hamas, a regional Iranian catspaw, group in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
The rockets were launched from the Qlayleh area north of Naqoura, near the border with Israel.
They do that every once in a while.
Israel's army confirmed the attack and said the rockets landed in the sea.
“Take that, O Neptune! And that! And that, too! Whew!
It was not immediately clear who had fired them, but two sources close to Hizbullah
...Party of God, a Leb militia inspired, founded, funded and directed by Iran. Hizbullah refers to itself as The Resistance and purports to defend Leb against Israel, with whom it has started and lost one disastrous war to date, though it did claim victory...
said the Lebanese group had no link to the incident.
“Please don’t hurt us!”
"A short while ago, three rockets were fired from Lebanon into the Mediterranean Sea off the coast of the Galilee," Israel's army said in a statement. "According to protocol no sirens were sounded," it added.

Several media reports said Lebanese security forces arrested those who fired the rockets. al-Jadeed TV however said no arrests have been made but added that the Lebanese Army has deployed in the area and is following the situation closely.

Al-Jadeed later reported that the army was chasing several suspects in a grove in the area.

A Paleostinian official meanwhile told An-Nahar newspaper that the Paleostinian factions were responsible for the incident and that "their message is that the resistance is one in Lebanon and Paleostine."
Pay attention to US!”
Al-Manar TV news hound Ali Shoaib meanwhile tweeted that the rockets did not cross the border and that the atmosphere was very normal in the area after the army’s deployment.

And as MTV said that Israeli warplanes were overflying south Lebanon after the incident, al-Arabiya TV quoted Israeli sources as saying that there will be no Israeli response.

The front man of the United Nations
...an organization which on balance has done more bad than good, with the good not done well and the bad done thoroughly...
Interim Force in Lebanon, Andrea Tenenti, meanwhile said that the Force, known as UNIFIL, was in contact with the Lebanese and Israeli sides and was urging them to show utmost restraint after the incident.
