إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Amer Arish, the so-called “commander of al-Beddawi frontier” in Tripoli, was wounded on Friday in a failed assassination attempt.
Unidentified attackers opened fire and hurled a hand grenade on Arish outside his shop in al-Beddawi, state-run National News Agency reported.
The man was rushed to hospital after he was wounded in the attack, NNA said.
Around seven people were killed and 30 others wounded in clashes that erupted on March 20 between the rival Tripoli neighborhoods of Jabal Mohsen and Bab al-Tabbaneh.
Tripoli has been witnessing deadly clashes between supporters and opponents of the Damascus regime for several years now.
The majority of Bab al-Tabbaneh residents are Sunni and back the revolution against Syrian President Bashar Assad, while Jabal Mohsen's residents are mainly Alawites from Assad's sect.

Because of the Islamic hadith where the prophet s.a.w said:
"Cut the moustaches short and leave the beard".
