Three Katyusha rockets struck open fields near Nahariya on Friday. There have been no reports of casualties. The rockets were fired from southern Lebanon and Israel Radio has reported that the Israel Defense Forces have launched retaliatory artillery into southern Lebanon… Channel 10 reported that an electric tower was struck by one of the rockets.
Apparently Hezbollah found somewhere else to plant a few of their tens of thousands of rockets. They were having some problems after Lebanese villagers disabused them of the notion that the villagers were willing to become human shields (not that Hezbollah uses human shields – cf. Human Rights Watch’s “no basis” strutting).
Interesting few days for Hezbollah. First they block the government from forming, forcing Hariri to resign. Now this. Someone’s having a good week.
