[An Nahar] An Energa-type rifle-launched grenade was fired on Sunday at an area located between the rival Tripoli neighborhoods of Jabal Mohsen and Bab al-Tabbaneh, state-run National News Agency reported.
Only minutes later person or persons unknown tossed a hand grenade at the stream of the nearby Abu Ali River, NNA said.
The two incidents did not cause any casualties or damage, according to the news agency.
The two neighborhoods have in the past been the scene of deadly sectarian festivities between Sunnis and Alawites and tensions remain high in the area.
