      Mild Earthquake in Lebanon Shakes Up Galilee


      A mild earthquake east of Tyre in Lebanon and measuring 4.0 in the Richter scale was felt in the Upper and Lower Galilee in the pre-dawn hours. Some people in the center of the country also felt it, although there was no damage.

      Several government agencies and private companies have warned lately that a large number of buildings in Israel are not built to stand during an earthquake.
