pflp tunnel naameh large explosion ripped through tunnels controlled by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine- General Command ( PFLP-GC) near the coastal town of Naameh south of Beirut, National News Agency reported.

The explosion, which took place on Tuesday night, was followed by intense gunfire that targeted the nearby valley, according to the report.

The report, however, did not elaborate further on the circumstances surrounding the incident.

PFLP-GC is an extremist Palestinian militant organization that is based in Syria and closely associated with the Syrian regime.

Unlike other Palestinian groups in Lebanon, the PFLP-GC has extensive military assets outside of the camps. Naameh and Sultan Yacoub in the eastern Beqaa Valley, about a mile or two from the Syrian border are its two largest bases.

PFLP-GC , designated terrorists by the United States and others in the West, was most active in the 1970s and 80s but retains influence with Palestinians in Syria and Lebanon.

    Mining operation gone bad. The shooting is simply because they shoot wildly if there’s any noise.
    Might have some electricity returned to ‘the grid’ after this. :-))))

    These terrorists still have training fields and tunnels and arms depots in Naameh about 20 kms from Beirut and the presidential palace ??? How come the army is so tolerant with this presence ? Shouldn’t these be eradicated ? Shouldn’t the army at least encircle the place that no arms get in and out of the place ? What is the point of having these training fields ? and so close to residential areas (like aramoun and doha from where the roickets were fired to Baabda).
    Is the army so selective in its duties ? The whole logistics in that area used by these terrorists should be blown up for good. What a shame to allow these foreign terrorists have their way in Lebanon after all what they have caused us !!!
