Report: 7 Booby-Trapped Cars Have Entered Lebanon
An alleged list containing details about “seven booby-trapped cars” that have entered Lebanon has surfaced on social networking websites, only a few days after the deadly twin bombing that targeted the Iranian embassy in Bir Hassan.
The document being circulated is supposedly a copy of a cable that was sent by the General Directorate of State Security to the Directorate General of Internal Security Forces.
The list details the types, colors and others details pertaining to the vehicles as follows:
– Red Volvo 740
– Gray GMC Envoy SUV without registration plates
– Olive green Toyota Four Runner SUV manufactured in 2001
– Black Grand Cherokee carrying a plate with the number 161023
– Silver Grand Cherokee Limited SUV manufactured in 1985
– Olive green SsangYong van
– Silver Mercedes 280 manufactured in 1980
On Tuesday, two suicide bombers blew themselves up outside the Iranian embassy in Beirut, killing 25 people and wounding at least 150 others.
And on Friday, the army defused a booby-trapped car containing 400 kilos of explosives and two shells between the Bekaa towns of Maqne and Younine.
