2 dead, 2 wounded as two families clash in Mashghara

A dispute between the Sharaf and al-Ammar families escalated into an armed clash Wednesday in the West Bekaa town of Mashghara, the National News Agency said.

The agency said the dispute was linked to previous tensions over cattle grazing and resulted in the death of H. Sharaf and A. Sharaf and the wounding of M. al-Ammar and his brother A. al-Ammar.

An army force later arrived in the town to separate between the two families as the army encircled the Suhmor hospital in West Bekaa.
