Lebanon Sees Surge In Violent Incidents And Crimes!
Over the weekend, Lebanon faced a surge in violent incidents, including an attempted murder on Father Elie Joseph Bachaalani in Bekaa, with the suspect arrested later.
Another tragedy occurred in Faraya when a road rage dispute led to the killing of 18-year-old Khalil Khalil. The suspect, Jonathan Chamoun, fled the scene, but authorities later captured him, along with the other suspects involved.
These incidents follow the assassination of Archimandrite Anania Kojanian, who was found dead in his home in Bsalim, Metn.
In addition, thefts have been reported across Lebanon, including a purse robbery in Kaslik and multiple thefts in Achrafieh, further contributing to the climate of fear.
Following this recent surge in crime, Interior Minister Bassam Mawlawi affirmed today that security services are “actively fulfilling their duties,” revealing that 1,920 individuals have been arrested for various crimes in January.
