2 RPGs Fired in Tripoli, Roads Blocked in Akkar, Bekaa, Naameh
Two rockets were fired on Monday in Tripoli, one landing in Jabal Mohsen and the other between Jabal Mohsen and Bab al-Tabbaneh, a security official told Agence France Presse, as roads were blocked in several areas to protest the shooting death on Sunday of Sheikh Ahmed Abdul Wahed at an army checkpoint in Akkar.
The explosion of rockets did not cause any injuries, the official said.
Meanwhile, angry protesters blocked the main highway linking the South to Beirut in the Naameh area and several roads in the northern areas of al-Abdeh, Tal Abbas and Halba.
Roads were also blocked in several areas in the Bekaa Valley.
The army and the Internal Security Forces later managed to reopen most roads.
