Israel Under Fire

The Hezbollah terrorists continue to send rocket barrages into Israel. Haifa has been particularly hard hit. The latest report is that a three story building was hit by a rocket and has collapsed. There are reposts of people trapped in the wreckage. There are no details available as yet, only the basic information.

A barrage of rockets fired from Lebanon hit the Haifa region Monday afternoon.

A rocket hit a building in Haifa. There were reports of wounded.

Two of the rockets landed before the city's warning siren was sounded.

Rockets landed in Tiberias and adjacent Lake Kinneret beaches, Acre and Safed as well. In addition, rockets were fired for the first time on communities in the southern Golan Heights.

Three Katyusha rockets were also fired at the northern Israeli town of Karmiel earlier Monday afternoon, causing severe damage to a building.

A number of people in all of the areas were reportedly suffering from shock.

Four residents of Mitzpe Tal El in the western Galilee were very lightly wounded Monday morning as Hizbullah resumed its Katyusha attacks on the north of Israel. Two more were wounded when a Katyusha landed near Acre.

After a night of heavy IAF strikes on targets throughout Lebanon, Monday morning witnessed fresh barrages of Katyusha rockets on the western Galilee villages of Julis, Abu Snaan, and Kfar Yasif as well as Tiberias.

Rockets have landed as far South as Afula, about 45 kilometers southeast of Haifa. That's the farthest South the attacks have reached to date. Note that these rockets are being aimed at civilian targets. Which would be a war crime under the Geneva conventions. Anyone on the left care to step up here?

Damn, those crickets are loud.

UPDATE: Neo-Neocon makes much the same point as I have been.
