Lebanon

During a clash in Beirut between Salafists and Hezbollah-linked supporters of the Assad regime in Syria, one person was killed and 15 were wounded. Fugitive Salafist preacher Ahmad al-Assir released a video accusing two Lebanese political blocs of seeking to kill him and suggested that Sunnis defect from the Lebanese army. A Maronite bishop escaped a kidnapping attempt in Zahle.
