Hizbollah rocket hits Israeli town of Tiberias

JERUSALEM, July 15: Several rockets fired by Hizbollah guerrillas hit the Israeli town of Tiberias today, medics said, marking the deepest penetration into Israel since Hizbollah began a rocket campaign three days ago.

There were no immediate reports of any casualties or damage from the attacks. Tiberias, a town on the Sea of Galilee, lies about 35 km from the Lebanese border.

Haifa, about 30 km inside Israel, was previously the deepest target struck by Hizbollah's rockets.
