Rocket barrage launched from Lebanon towards western Galilee

Israel's Army Radio is reporting that a barrage of eight rockets was launched from Lebanon, striking a house in the northern Israeli town of Shlomi.

It added that the house had been damaged and that a fire had broken out in the Liman Settlement, but no casualties have been reported.

This followed an announcement by Lebanon's Hezbollah that its fighters had launched a barrage of Katyusha rockets at the Mount Neria base in northern Israel.
