BEIRUT, July 25 (RIA Novosti) – Two rockets targeting north Israel were fired from Lebanon overnight on Friday, Lebanon’s National News Agency said Friday.
According to the agency, the rockets missed their targets and landed on the Lebanese side. No casualties have been reported.
“The Lebanese Army started searching for rockets platforms in the vicinity of Kfar Hamam and Fardiss while ISF [Internal Security Forces] opened investigation in the incident,” NNA said.
