The United States has condemned rocket attacks from Syria on Lebanon's eastern Bekaa Valley and called for the respect of Lebanon's dissociation policy. The U.S. "strongly condemns" the attacks, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said Thursday. "We of course call on all parties in the region to respect, as we always do, Lebanon's sovereignty and its stated policy of disassociation," Psaki added. Syrian army helicopters fired several rockets on an area along the border near the northeastern town of Arsal, said the officials.
