Hizbullah Says Not Behind Rocket Attack on Israel
Hizbullah said on Saturday that it was not behind a rocket attack on northern Israel that sparked a retaliatory volley of shells from the Jewish state.
"Hizbullah has nothing to do with this attack," the party”s spokesman Ibrahim Moussawi told Agence France Presse.
His comments came after two rockets were launched early on Saturday from southern Lebanon into northern Israel, and the Israeli military responded with artillery.
Israeli public radio said a rocket hit near the Israeli town of Maalot close to the border lightly injuring one woman.
