Rockets from Syria Hit Hermel for Second Day in a Row, No Casualties

Two rockets were fired on Sunday by Syrian militants at Hermel city in the Bekaa, without causing any casualties.

Two other rockets were also fired at Al-Qasr border town causing only material damage, National News Agency reported.

For his part, Loyalty to the Resistance Parliamentary Bloc MP Nawwar Al-Sahili commented on the rocket attacks from the Syrian side at Hermel, considering them “a desperate response by defeated gangs that have not realized the historical and geographical relation between Hermel and the Syrian neighbor.”

MP Sahili pointed out that “Hermel hosts thousands of Syrians, as it’ neighborhoods are being exposed to indiscriminate bombing.”

As he assured that such attacks would not affect the morale of the people in that region, the MP demanded the Lebanese president, Executive Authorities, and Lebanese Army to “take the right measures in order to preserve the security and safety of Hermel and its people.”
