Israel Targets Individual on Jounieh Highway

An Israeli airstrike targeted an individual on the Jounieh Highway, with ambulances and Civil Defense teams quickly rushing to the scene.

Earlier this morning, a loud explosion was heard in Jounieh, initially believed to be caused by a gas cylinder explosion at L’Abeille D’or pastry shop on the western side of the Jounieh Highway.

Preliminary information indicates that four people were injured and transferred to St. John Hospital.

The Traffic Management Center reported that the western lane of the Jounieh Highway, near the Sahel Alma area, has been closed due to an urgent security incident, and traffic is being diverted to the coastal road.
