Rain Of Rockets Continues

Ha'aretz is reporting more than 100 rockets have landed in Israel today.

Hezbollah guerillas in Lebanon fired over 100 Katyusha rockets at targets in northern Israel on Thursday, landing across the Galilee and Hula Valley.

A barrage of rockets struck Kiryat Shmona around 6:30 P.M., lightly wounding two people. Earlier, a rocket struck a factory in the city, and a house sustained a direct hit.

Fires broke out in the Galilee panhandle as a result of rocket strikes.

In Haifa, sirens sounded at 6 P.M. Two rockets landed in the city's suburbs, causing no injuries.

Thirteen people were lightly injured in rocket strikes on Carmiel, Majdal Krum, Kiryat Shmona, and the area of Rosh Pina.

Four rockets landed in the afternoon in the area of Tiberias. Some rockets fell in open areas, causing fires to break out.

The first barrage came at around 8 A.M., when six rockets struck Safed and three fell in Ma'alot. Some two hours later, six rockets landed in the Rosh Pina area, two more struck the Safed region and a single rocket struck the Carmiel area. The border town of Rosh Hanikra was also hit.

Five rockets fell on Nahariya, one of them hitting an empty house.

Since the start of the conflict in Lebanon, more than 1,400 rockets have been launched at Israel. Of that number, 352 have hit cities, and 19 people have been killed.

Another 26 people have been seriously injured, 36 have suffered moderate injuries and 319 have been lightly hurt. A total of 595 people have been treated for shock.

Hezbollah continues to commit war crimes, of course.
