Seven killed by Hezbollah attack on northern Israel | BBC News
Two separate Hezbollah rocket attacks have killed seven people in northern Israel, authorities say - the deadliest such strikes in months.
Hezbollah said it had fired barrages of rockets towards the Krayot area north of Haifa and at Israeli forces south of the Lebanese town of Khiam, which is across the border from Metula.
An Israeli farmer and four foreign agricultural workers were killed when rockets landed near Metula, a town on the border with Lebanon, Foreign Minister Israel Katz said.
Later, a woman in her 60s and a man around 30 were killed near Kibbutz Afek, on the outskirts of the coastal city of Haifa, according to paramedics.
The deadly rocket attacks came as two US special envoys met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem to discuss a possible ceasefire deal to end the war with Hezbollah.Subscribe here: http://bit.ly/1rbfUog
