Three rockets fired by US, israel backed Syria terrorists hit northeast Lebanon

Three rockets fired by militants operating in Syria have hit the northeastern Lebanese region of Bekaa Valley.

Security sources said the rockets landed on the villages of Nabi Othman and Labweh on Friday but left no casualties.

The terrorist Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) operating against the Syrian government claimed responsibility for the attack.

On April 2, rockets also targeted Labweh, killing a Syrian national and wounded a resident of the village.

The Shia-populated region of Bekaa Valley has been targeted by rockets fired by anti-Syria militants over the past few months.

Lebanon has been rocked by the spillover of the conflict in Syria, with its north being the epicenter of fierce clashes between supporters and opponents of the Syrian government.

Syria has been gripped by crisis since March 2011. Damascus says the West and its regional allies have been fuelling the turmoil by providing militants with money and weapons.

According to some reports, more than 140,000 people have been killed due to the turmoil in Syria and a total of 7.8 million others have been displaced.
