Mob ransacks Sunni cleric's office in Tripoli, Lebanon after video offensive to Shia Muslims circulates online
Anti-government protesters light up their mobile phones as they shout slogans during a protest near the parliament square in downtown Beirut, Lebanon on Decemeber 15, 2019.
The violence indicated that the tensions that gripped the Lebanese capital, Beirut, a day earlier over an online video deemed offensive to the country’s Shia population are spreading to Tripoli, the country’s second-largest city. The state-run National News Agency reported that the military later detained four assailants in Tripoli but did not provide other details.
Angry assailants also attacked protest camps in the northern district Hermel and in the southern Sidon and Nabatiyeh on Tuesday.
