Two Katyusha rockets hit Northern Israel; damage but no injuries

Two Katyusha rockets hit the northern town of Kiryat Shmona on Sunday afternoon, in the first rocket strikes on northern Israel since the end of the Second Lebanon War last summer.

"Two Katyusha rockets landed in Kiryat Shmona, and caused damage to a vehicle and roads. There were no injuries," a police spokesman said.

It was not immediately clear who was responsible for the fire, but a Lebanese security source said suspected Palestinian gunmen - not Hezbollah - had carried out the attack.

Hezbollah issued an official denial of responsibility for the rocket fire. "Hezbollah denies being involved in any operation to launch missiles today against occupied Palestine," said a flash script on Hezbollah-run Al-Manar television.

The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command also denied Sunday any involvement in the rocket attacks.
