Another Islamic State Graffiti Threat in Tripoli
Unknown assailants have sprayed pro-Islamic State writings on the wall of a butchery and the car of the shop owner in the northern city of Tripoli, the state-run National News Agency reported Wednesday.
“The Islamic State is on its way,” said the writing on the wall.
The meathouse, located in al-Mina area, is owned by a Lebanese-Syrian named Jamal Mohammed al-Soaid, NNA said.
The same writings were found on his car, the news agency added.
Several threats have been made against Christians in Tripoli by painting similar messages on the walls of churches.
The threats came after a video showing several men burning the IS flag in Ashrafiyeh's Sassine square was circulated on social media.
There have been reports that protesters burned crosses in Tripoli in retaliation.
