| 2014-01-27 |
| [An Nahar] A farmer on Sunday found the remains of a rocket as he was cultivating his land in the southern town of al-Mari in Hasbaya District. Al-Jadeed television said the man immediately informed the relevant security authorities, which arrived on the scene and took the remains to a military post. It later turned out that the projectile was one of four rockets that were fired on the morning of December 29 towards Israel. The rocket fell short of its target and landed in the al-Mari plain inside Leb. Security forces failed back then to locate the stray projectile. Israeli forces fired around 20 shells that day in retaliation to the rocket attack. On the same day, the Lebanese army found four wooden launchpads in the Wadi al-Khraybeh region in the Hasbaya District, from which the rockets were fired. |
