Sectarian violence erupts around Beirut Tripoli and Aley
Ten people died in a sectarian ambush near Beirut with three wounded while a car bombing in Tripoli damaged seven cars and the Druze Socialist Party headquarters. Walid Jumblat narrowly escaped an assassination attempt in west Beirut last month as fighting spreads in the Shouf area. Prime Minister Wazzan urged Israel’s immediate withdrawal in Parliament, citing a conspiracy against Lebanon as Syrian, Palestinian, and Israeli forces operate across the country.
