Students, Teacher Wounded as Bus Overturns in Tyre

Three students and a teacher were injured on Thursday when a school bus overturned on the main road of Shahour-Tayr Felsay in the district of Tyre.

The National News Agency said the injured were taken to Jabal Amel hospital in the southern city of Tyre for treatment.

It did not specify what type of injuries they suffered.

Heavy rains and a snowstorm are lashing Lebanon since Wednesday. The accident was most probably caused by the heavy storm.

On Wednesday, a UNIFIL truck with Indian troops on board flipped over on the road that leads to Wadi al-Slouqi that lies between the southern towns of Houla and al-Shaqra.

There were no injuries.

The road was briefly blocked to traffic after oil spilled from the truck.
