Bomb Attack Targets House in Majdal Anjar

A bomb exploded at dawn Tuesday outside a house in the Bekaa town of Majdal Anjar, wounding two Syrian children, state-run National News Agency reported.

“The explosive device went off at 3:00 am, targeting the car of Mohammed Salim Abdul Khaleq outside his house in Majdal Anjar,” NNA said.

The car was completely destroyed as a nearby room inhabited by Syrian refugees sustained damage.

“Two Syrian toddler girls were lightly injured and transported to hospital,” NNA said.

Security agencies have since launched an investigation into the incident.

The army later issued a statement saying the explosive device was a hand grenade that was placed under the car.
