Health Ministry Launches Probe after Nine People Food Poisoned

W300

Nine members of the same family have been food poisoned and transferred to the state-run Rafik Hariri University Hospital in Beirut, the Health Ministry announced on Sunday.

The ministry did not mention the source of the food but noted that it has launched a probe into the incident.

More than a year ago, Health Minister Wael Abou Faour launched an unprecedented food safety campaign that saw the closure and fining of several restaurants, grocery stores, slaughterhouses and farms.

The ministry's measures have also targeted some beauty centers, hospitals and daycares.

I'm not surprised this is still going on, especially when Iran is running the show.

Hi Mowaten, nice to see you're keeping up with your fake accounts like a good boy.

I wouldn't know fake account # 2, I don't support them either, so your claim's invalid. I laugh how that's all your group can do: Assume we're Saudi/Zionist if we don't agree with your brilliant view. However, you're no better than the Zionists as you are illegally occupying Lebanon, soooo.......
