Lebanese factions torn over Syria

Observers fear the attack on Hezbollah grounds will flare up the fighting between Lebanese factions who are already up in arms against each other on different sides of the Syrian war, where the Hezbollah are backing President Bashar al-Assad's fight to quell the Sunni-based revolt. Addressing his Hezbollah members, leader Hassan Nasrallah pledge that they would prevail in Syria but held that he did not want to see Lebanon itself burst into flames.

The Syrian conflict has already claimed over 80,000 lives since it fired up over two years ago. More than 1.5 million people have fled the country as refugees continue to pour out of the Syrian borders. In the past week, fights between different factions in Lebanon have claimed the lives of 25 people.

No faction claimed responsibility for the rocket attack, but Interior Minister Marwan Charbel said the 107mm rockets had been fired from the southeast. One of the rockets rocket hit a car showroom while the other hit a residential building but allegedly did not explode.
