FILES-LEBANON-MIDEAST-ISRAEL-ROCKETS

(FILES) -- File picture taken on December 25, 2008 shows members of the Lebanese security forces inspecting a rocket found set up and pointing towards Israel in a field near the southern Lebanese village of Naqura near the Lebanese-Israeli border. Several rockets hit northern Israel from Lebanon early on January 8, 2009, lightly wounding two people, officials told AFP. The rockets fired into northern Israel from Lebanon could have been set off by Palestinian groups in retaliation for the war in Gaza, Israeli media reported. The last time rockets from Lebanon in northern Israel was on June 17, 2007 slamming into the northern town of Kiryat Shmona but at the time, Hezbollah denied responsibility and Israel also said Hezbollah was not involved in the attack, blamed on an unnamed Palestinian organisation.
