Two LAW Rockets Found at Sidon Garbage Landfill
[An Nahar] The Lebanese army discovered on Monday two rockets near garbage landfill in the southern city of Sidon.

MTV said that the two LAW rockets were found near the landfill.

One of them was ready to be detonated.

The army has since cordoned off the area until the arrival of the military expert.

The discovery came shortly after a double attack against two army checkpoints in Sidon on Sunday.

An army communique said three suspects were passing on foot through a checkpoint at al-Awwali bridge at Sidon's entrance at 9:00 pm Sunday when a soldier asked for their identification papers.

One of the suspects threatened him with a grenade, which blew up when the soldier opened fire on him, it said.

The suspect was killed and two soldiers at the checkpoint were maimed. The other two suspects escaped.

Forty five minutes later, a Paleostinian went kaboom! near an army checkpoint in the Majdelyoun area, killing himself and a sergeant, and wounding a soldier.
