Fire Erupts in One of Aoun’s Tents
| Fire Erupts in One of Aoun’s Tents Fire broke out Saturday in one of the more than 200 tents erected in downtown Beirut by anti-government protestors. Security sources told Naharnet the tent that caught fire belongs to Michel Aoun’s Free Patriotic Movement. One source said the fire was “most probably caused by a stove kept in the tent.” No casualties were immediately reported. He said protestors from the Hizbullah-led opposition rushed to combat the blaze and prevent it from spreading to other tents erected in downtown Beirut since Dec. 1 in an effort to topple Premier Fouad Saniora’s majority government. |
