Two Explositions Rock Tyre
Two near-simultaneous explosions shook the southern Lebanese city Tyre at dawn Wednesday causing damages. However, no casualties were reported.
The first explosion at 4:55 a.m. ripped through a restaurant at Queen Elissa Hotel, damaging several cars, including one of a UN officer who works for the United Nations Truce Supervision Organization (UNTSO).
A similar explosion tore through a spirit shop near Tyre Port five minutes later, inflicting material damage.
Lebanese security forces cordoned off the area around Elissa Hotel, preventing reporters and photographers from getting close to the site.
The bomb destroyed the ground floor restaurant at the three-story hotel and shattered windows.
