Ban Ki-moon slams firing of Katyushas at Shlomi from Lebanon

United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon condemned on Friday the firing of rockets towards the northern village of Shlomi from southern Lebanon. "If the rockets were fired from Lebanon, as it can be assumed, it is a severe violation to UNSC Resolution 1701," Ban said. Palestinian terror groups affiliated with al-Qaida are the prime suspects in the firing of two Katyusha rockets into Shlomi early Tuesday morning.
