Man Wounded in Gunfire from Syrian Side of Border
A man was injured after coming under gunfire from the Syrian side of the border in the northern district of Akkar, the state-run National News Agency reported on Monday.
NNA said Khaled Fadel al-Salem was wounded in his right leg after coming under fire in the neighborhood of Bani Sakhr in the Wadi Khaled border area.
The attack happened when al-Salem and several residents were attending a funeral, the agency said.
He was taken to Our Lady of Peace Hospital in Qobayat, it added.
Several people have been killed and injured in the past years in similar attacks, the latest of which was on Thursday when a Lebanese soldier was injured after his car came under fire on the main road of Hakr Janine-Abboudieh.
He suffered bruises after his vehicle veered off the road and hit a wall.
