Grenade Shakes Tripoli, 2 Others Found in Hermel
2011-05-01
[An Nahar] A hand grenade shook the Boulevard area of the northern port city of Tripoli at dawn Saturday, causing no material damage, the state-run National News Agency reported.

NNA said that the grenade was tossed by unknown assailants near al-Baba building at 2:00 am. The blast did not cause any injuries or material damage, it added.

Grenade attacks are becoming frequent in Tripoli.

In another incident, two hand grenades were found near the house of Hassan Allam in Hermel. An army bomb disposal expert disposed of one of them and took the other to another nearby military base, NNA said.

Also Friday night, an unknown assailant threw a Molotov cocktail on a tent belonging to anti-confessional regime protestors in Dahr el-Wahesh after a dispute between Wael Jaber and several activists.

A man called Shebli al-Khaleq fired gunshots in the air to end the clash. No injuries were reported, NNA said.
