YEREVAN, JULY 9, ARMENPRESS: An explosion occurred in the southern
suburbs of Beirut. This was stated by the Editor-in-Chief of Azdak
Daily Shahan Kandaharian in the conversation with Armenpress.
"The explosion occurred near the Center for Islamic Cooperation,
causing wounded", - noted Shahan Kandaharian. The situation is chaotic
because there is a danger of existence of the second mine.
Armenpress got informed by the Azdak Daily, that 38 people were
taken to hospital with different bodily injuries. To the question,
have Armenians suffered from the explosion, the Editor-in-Chief of
Azdak daily Shahan Kandaharian answered that Armenians are far from
the place of the incident. By this moment all the roads taking to
the explosion site are closed.
The Armenian community in Beirut did not suffer damage from the
clashes ongoing in Lebanon. On June 23 a war situation was created
in the Southern Lebanon, when the Islamist groupings attacked the
Lebanese army. In the result of the collision the army gave wounded
and killed. On June 24 the armed Islamists opened sniper shots towards
the streets of the Southern capital of Lebanon.
