                       Rockets from Syria Land in Lebanon

   Syria`s bloody, two-year-old conflict has yet again spilled across the
   border into Lebanon, where officials say a series of rockets landed in
   an eastern region on Friday.
   Security officials say at least six rockets fired from Syria hit the
   eastern Bekaa region of Lebanon, but landed harmlessly in a field and
   did not cause casualties.
   The Bekaa region is a stronghold of the Lebanese militant group
   Hezbollah, which is fighting rebels in Syria alongside the government
   forces of President Bashar al-Assad.
   Lebanon, which has not officially taken a side in the Syrian civil war,
   has been hit in recent months by a number of rockets, many of which
   have struck pro-Hezbollah regions.
   Clashes in Lebanon between supporters and opponents of Mr. Assad have
   also killed dozens in recent weeks.
