Shots Fired at Cafe Owned by Mustaqbal Supporter in Saadiyat

W300

A cafe owned by a Mustaqbal Movement supported came under gunfire at dawn Tuesday in the coastal area of Saadiyat, 25 kilometers south of Beirut, state-run National News Agency reported.

“Unknown assailants opened fire from a car at a cafe owned by Mohammed al-Asaad, a supporter of al-Mustaqbal Movement, in Saadiyat, causing material damage,” NNA said.

Heavy clashes had erupted in the town in February between the Hizbullah-affiliated Resistance Brigades and members of the al-Asaad family in which machineguns and rocket-propelled grenades were used.

Such incidents have become frequent in recent years in the Saadiyat area.

On January 12, a prayer hall came under gunfire during the presence of a local Hizbullah official in it.

The area had witnessed heavy clashes between supporters of al-Mustaqbal and members of the Resistance Brigades in July 2015 in which scores of people were injured.

the sectarian trolls in this forum are divided into several groups:

1) hired trolls, their aim is to spread sectarian hate and strife, the majority are not Lebanese.
2) some primitive sectarian extremists, their aim is spew rubbish and personal attacks in order to spoil the good arguments in this forum.
3) zionists, basically posts from Usa and Israel, they are a mix of the two above.
4) hard line right-wing fascists, they defend Israel and KSA, against their own fellows Lebanese because they don't agree with them.

we mustn't fall in that trap and convert the forum into sectarian battlefield, this is what they want.
