[An Nahar] Four rockets landed Wednesday evening in several northern Bekaa towns after being reportedly fired from the Eastern Mountain Range which straddles the Lebanese-Syrian border.

According to state-run National News Agency, the rockets hit the outskirts of the towns of al-Bzaliyeh, Hrabta and al-Labweh.

Voice of Leb radio (93.3) said the projectiles were fired from the Eastern Mountain Belt.

Al-Labweh's municipal chief confirmed to Sky News Arabia that three rockets had fallen on the town "without causing casualties."

Later on Wednesday, the Lebanese Army issued a statement confirming that "four rockets landed in the outskirts of the towns of al-Bzaliyeh and Hrabta after being fired from the Eastern Mountain Belt, causing no casualties."

"Army forces immediately staged patrols in the targeted area as a military expert inspected the impact site," the statement added.

#1  Is it actually legal, under international law, to fire rockets on somebody who isn't Israel?
