Men Throw Lit Molotov Cocktail at Bank in Beirut

A group of men lobbed a lighting molotov cocktail at the facade of a bank in the Beirut neighborhood of Ras el-Nabaa at dawn, the National News Agency reported on Tuesday.

The arson led to material damages, said NNA without naming the bank.

The incident follows clashes overnight between anti-government protesters and the Lebanese army in the northern city of Tripoli, that saw protesters vandalize the facades of several banks to protest dire economic conditions.
