The fourth explosion since Bashar Assad unleashed his orcs in northern Lebanon targeted a bus in Sad al-Bushriyeh, wounding seven according to LBC. Details are still sketchy.
The terrorist attack coincided with a cabinet meeting attended by Lebanese army and ISF officials.
Update. The bomb was placed in a bus parked near an abandoned building, opposite Abdel Masih center.
