The fear of a widespread regional war has increased as two rockets hit Beirut, Lebanon on Sunday and the head of Hezbollah said they would continue fighting on the government’s side in Syria.
The rockets hit a Shi’ite Muslim district of the Lebanese capital just one day after at least 28 people were killed and 250 injured in Sunni-Alawite violence in the Lebanese city of Tripoli.
The rocket attack in Beirut is quite noteworthy since, as the Christian Science Monitor noted, it was the first of its kind since 1990.
The neighborhood hit by the attack – which left four to five wounded – has a significant number of supporters of the Shi’ite group Hezbollah, according to reports.
“There was no claim of responsibility for Sunday’s rocket attacks although suspicion has fallen on Sunni militants, possibly connected to armed rebel groups seeking to oust Mr. Assad from power,” the Christian Science Monitor reports.
“The attacks are aimed at creating security tensions and certain retaliations, given the timing of the incident,” said Najib Mikati, the Lebanese Prime Minister who tendered his resignation on March 22, 2013. “We call on all sides to act wisely to prevent those seeking strife to achieve their goals.”
