Qatar’s Al Jazeera television network announced that its office in Beirut has been evacuated following multiple warnings had been made to the building housing it. 

Additionally, the Norwegian embassy in Beirut faced a similar security scare. According to the Norwegian Foreign Ministry, the embassy was evacuated after receiving a bomb threat.

Later, Reuters cited a Lebanese security source and a diplomatic source as saying that the threats made to buildings housing Al-Jazeera and the Norwegian embassy were determined to be fake.
