A rocket was launched at dawn from the outskirts of Shebaa town and landed in Lebanon's territory, the National News Agency reported on Tuesday.

Unknown assailants in the outskirts of Shebaa fired a rocket at 2:00 am that landed in southern Lebanon.

The Lebanese army has since been sweeping the southern tip of Shebaa in search for the rocket platform which launched missiles towards the north of the occupied Palestinian territories. The missiles landed on the highlands of al-Shahel mountain.

In that regard, the Lebanese army raided Bekaa's town of Brital on the backdrop of the incident.

Moreover, Israeli unmanned reconnaissance airplanes hovered over Shebaa, NNA added.

On Saturday, the Lebanese Army found in olive fields west of the southern region of Rashaya al-Fakhar, a launchpad that was used a week before to fire a rocket towards Israel but it fell short and landed in Lebanese territory.

Earlier, two rocket launchpads were found in the southern city of Tyre.

The rocket attacks from the South started amid an Israeli assault on Gaza,which entered today its fifteenth day leaving hundreds of Palestinians dead and wounded.

Are you comical Ali, Saddams former (dis)information minister? The village of Chebaa is not occupied and neither is it closest farms. That is where this rocket attack came from.

seems like the article was edited since i commented. initially it just said fired from shebaa and landed in lebanese territory, sounded like it came from the israeli-occupied area.

I did not know the Lebanese army had access to IS-raeli territory, but again only a propagandist can claim that.

"The Lebanese army has since been sweeping the southern tip of Shebaa in search for the rocket platform which launched missiles "

The line was not added to the article. It was always there, but as always you rush to spread your propaganda without further analysis.

Bravo FT for supporting immoral Hamas that hide their rocket launchers in schools, kids playgrounds and hospitals.

Israel the sissy carpet bombers who aim for civilians. Get owned as soon as they try to fight face to face whether its in gaza or lebanon. Stick to sodastream racist scum, fighting is for real men

Screaming Zionist the crutch of the illiterate idiots

It is so regrettable that some people, who regard themselves as nationalist, like General Aoun, would team up with the Zionist gang, which is behind the US Syria Accountability Act” MP Mohammed Raad
