Several barrages of rockets fired by Hezbollah guerillas in southern Lebanon hit the Israeli port city of Haifa on Sunday. The coastal city is home to one of Intel Corp.’s most important processor design centers.

The first barrage of rockets on Sunday killed eight Israeli workers and wounded 17 at a train depot in Haifa. No one was injured by two additional attacks on the city that same day, according to Israeli media reports. On Sunday, Israel’s Home Front Command ordered residents in Haifa to stay inside bomb shelters.

Despite the rocket attacks, operations at Intel’s Haifa design center have so far not been disrupted, said Koby Bahar, a spokesman for Intel Israel. The center employs around 2,300 workers, he said.
