A woman and five of her sons and daughters were wounded Wednesday when they were attacked by relatives in the Bekaa town of Maqneh, state-run National News Agency reported.

“Ali Shaalan al-Meqdad and Ali Adnan al-Meqdad opened fire at Ramleh Hussein al-Meqdad, the wife of Sheikh Ali al-Meqdad, and her five children in the Bekaa town of Maqneh,” NNA said.

It identified the sons and daughters as Yumna, 21, Hassan, 22, Zeinab, 23, Narjes, 24, and Mohammed, 15.

The six family members were all wounded in the legs, the agency said.

It attributed the incident to a “family dispute among women.”

The two shooters have since fled to an unknown destination.

Typical tribal iranian mentality

why do you always have to post BS against iran? are you paid to do it? like seriously, when did you see something like this happen in iran?
it's sadly a very lebanese thing, that we're seeing more and more often across the country, from north to south and east to west...

In your country Iran, you people throw acid at women's faces when you get rejected. Now go troll on another site.

1- iran is not my country

2-"According to researchers and activists, countries typically associated with acid assault include Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, China, United Kingdom, Kenya, South Africa, Uganda, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Ethiopia"
(some case have been reported in iran, but numbers are comparable to those in france, UK or the US for instance)

3- acid throwing has nothing to do with the shooting mentioned in the article, which you claimed was something unique to iran (very funny considering your country the US&A has one of the highest shooting rates in the world)

so much fail in so few words, how do you even manage to do it?

for once i have to agree, it's totally shameful and unacceptable. no matter the circumstance, those who shoot at unarmed people, especially women and children, have no honor or dignity. tfeh 3aleyhon
