It is believed the rockets were aimed at Israel in solidarity with the Gazan Palestinians during Israel’s Operation Pillar of Defense, which ended Wednesday night with a ceasefire.
Several Palestinian groups operate in southern Lebanon, though the border has been quiet in recent years. The Iran-backed terrorist group Hezbollah is also based in Lebanon.
