| [AnNahar] A military expert detonated a bomb that was found on a side road between the district of Zgharta and the northern city of Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... , the military said on Saturday. "At 8:30 p.m. on Friday an army unit located four kilograms of explosives on Majdlaya - al-Qobbeh road," the army said in a communique. The statement said that the military cordoned off the area as a military expert arrived at the place to detonate it. The bomb, which was set to explode, was located on the side road of the town of Majdlaya that lies between the city of Tripoli and the town of Zgharta. "An investigation is underway to find the culprits," the army pointed out. LBCI reported earlier that the army detained two people at dawn at the Majdlaya checkpoint after tossing a bomb near the army. On Wednesday, a military expert defused around 10 kilograms of explosives found on the same road in Majdlaya. The army communique said the bomb was made up of a gas cylinder filled with 10 kilograms of explosives, and linked to a detonator and a 15-meter electric cable. |
