Israeli planes strike Lebanon after rocket salvo

Israeli warplanes bombed bases of a pro-Syrian Palestinian group in Lebanon, including positions near Beirut, after militants fired a rocket salvo deeper than ever before inside the Jewish state.

Six Palestinian fighters were wounded, three of them seriously, and an Israeli soldier was lightly injured in the tit-for-tat attacks, according to the Israeli military and Lebanese police.

The air force raided two bases of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command (PFLP-GC), while Israel angrily announced it would lodge a complaint with the United Nations.

Israeli fighter bombers swooped several times to fire 15 missiles at a base in Sultan Yaacub in eastern Lebanon, less than 10 kilometres (six miles) from the border with Syria, causing the casualties, police said.
