At Least 7 Injured in Renewed Sniper Activity in Tripoli
Several people were injured on Saturday as clashes took place in the northern city of Tripoli and sniper activity was registered between the rival neighborhoods of Jabal Mohsen and Bab al-Tabbaneh.
"Seven people were wounded in Bab al-Tabbaneh and (Tripoli's) Hara Barranieh,” LBCI television reported.
The same source also said Ali Tamer, who hails from Jabal Mohsen, was beaten up.
Meanwhile, MTV said Jabal Mohsen's Laila Hasan Ramadan and a man from al-Zafer family were injured.
All shades were closed in the areas of clashes and al-Baddawi road was closed sue to the intensifying sniper activity, according the MTV.
The last round of clashes in Tripoli took place on Thursday, soon after a deadly bombing hit the southern Beirut suburb of Haret Hreik.
The fighting then claimed the life of one woman and lead to several injuries among northern residents.
