Explosion of weapons-laden pickup sparks fire in Hermel outskirts

A pickup truck smuggling weapons and shells exploded in the outskirts of Hermel, near the Syrian border, following an exchange of gunfire with the Lebanese army, which responded to the source of fire.

The explosion caused a fire in a wooded area between the towns of Charbine and Fessani in the Hermel district. Around five fire trucks were dispatched to extinguish the blaze.
