Vehicle of Khreiss Goes on Fire, MP Escapes Unharmed
AMAL movement MP Ali Khreiss escaped unharmed from a fire that erupted in his vehicle’s engine in the southern town of Bazourieh, media reports said Wednesday.
Voice of Lebanon radio station (93.3) reported on Wednesday that Khreiss was in the car with his daughter, but they were able to escape safely after a spark in an electric wire caused the fire.
An explosive expert arrived at the scene and confirmed the preliminary report.
Khreiss was on a family visit when the fire erupted in his Mercedes 320.
However, the MP said that “the accident was caused by a gasoline leakage.”
“The security services arrived at the scene and began investigating, and I informed them that the fire accident was caused by a gasoline leakage and there are no other reasons,” Khreiss stressed.
