Two Lebanese killed in Beirut car explosion

An explosion in a booby-trapped car in the Lebanese capital, Beirut on Friday resulted in the death of the driver of the car, Tony Moussa Bu Nakhleh, and another citizen, George Fuad Deeb, who was passing by the site of the explosion.

The explosion was very strong and frightened the people of the area as the explosive charge was estimated at 3 kg weight. Immediately the Lebanese security forces cordoned the site of the incident, and security bodies started investigations with several non-Lebanese workers who are employed in neighboring workshops.
