OCCUPIED-AL-QUDS: Israel shelled Lebanon early on Tuesday in response to earlier rocket attacks, the Israeli army said, as the United Nations urged all sides to show "maximum restraint." The Israeli army said "two rockets were fired from Lebanon into Israeli territory," with one intercepted by air defences while the other struck open ground. "In response, a short while ago (Israeli) artillery struck in Lebanese territory," the army said.
