Residents of Abboudiyeh Block Road to Protest Syrian Gunfire

The residents of the Akkar border town of al-Abboudiyeh briefly blocked the international highway on Saturday to protest the Syrian gunfire in the area.

The state-run National News Agency reported that the angry residents blocked the road to protest the continuous gunfire that is targeting their houses in the area.

On August 8, heavy gunfire from Syria targeted al-Abboudiyeh, forcing residents to flee the area en masse.

The National News Agency said volleys of machinegun fire hit the Lebanese territory along the northern border, from al-Abboudiyeh to Hakr Janin.
