Summary

Eight rockets from Syria hit two villages in Lebanon's Bekaa Valley Saturday, killing one person and wounding three others, security sources told The Daily Star.

Four of the rockets landed in the eastern village of Nabi Othman while the other four struck the nearby village of Labweh.

Angered by the attacks, several people blocked the road connecting Baalbek to Hermel and abducted three men from Arsal, a majority-Sunni area known for its closeness to the armed Syrian opposition.
