Clash erupts as motorbike convoy enters Ashrafieh after Morocco win
A clash erupted overnight at Ashrafieh’s Sassine Square after dozens of individuals arrived in the area on motorbikes carrying “flags of Morocco, Palestine and Syria,” media reports said.
The incident followed Morocco’s historic win and qualification for the FIFA World Cup semifinals in Qatar.
Videos posted online showed the revelers chanting Islamic slogans in front of the Christmas tree in Sassine. The scenes were deemed provocative by young men from the area, which triggered a clash.
Another video showed army troops intervening to contain the clash and separate between the two sides.

A 2022 motorbike pollutes 6x more than a modern car, an older bike pollutes 11x more and that’s if they’re well maintained… .

And you really think it was those doing this? Have you learned nothing about how things work in lebanon? Rafik Hariri is reported to have said, "when it comes to lebanon believe nothing of what you hear and only half of what you see".
why the flag of Syria? Why chant Islamic slogans in front of a Christmas tree?
