Hezbollah fired missiles into the north of Israel. Of the 140 missiles, 20 were fired in the Meron and Netua areas. Most of them were in open areas. Hezbollah said the missiles were in retaliation for Israeli attacks on villages and homes in southern Lebanon. After two days of attacks, however, Israel is not to blame, which has carried out hundreds of explosions through pagers and walkie-talkies.
