BEIRUT: Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea denounced Monday the recent assault on a number of Alawite residents from the northern Lebanese city of Tripoli.
“Geagea denounced in the strongest terms the blatant assault on the workers from Jabal Mohsen and requested that the judicial and security authorities take immediate measures and level the harshest punishment against the perpetrators,” according to an LF statement.
On Saturday, six residents from Jabal Mohsen, a predominantly Alawite neighborhood, were assaulted after being pulled out from a bus in a Sunni neighborhood of the northern city.
