Two people have been robbed at gunpoint in the al-Taybeh area in the southern region of Marjeyoun, state-run National News Agency reported.

“Lebanese citizen Khaled al-Itawi, 25, and Syrian national Mohammed Naji Daoud, 25, filed a report with the al-Taybeh police station, saying four unknown gunmen had intercepted their yellow Toyota van in the al-Taybeh area and robbed them of the van itself, a million Lebanese pounds, their personal identification papers, and two cellphones,” NNA said.

The gunmen, who arrived in a Toyota SUV with no license plate, fled to an unknown destination, the agency added.
