At least one dead and seven injured is the sad account of the explosion so far, which occurred at dawn today in the town of Banaaful in South Lebanon. A building housing the offices of the Scout Movement affiliated to the Shiite militia of the "Amal" faction was completely destroyed, while the adjacent premises of the town's town hall were severely damaged.
According to local media reports, the young man who died in the explosion was a member of the "Amal" militia. The "Amal" faction, headed by the Speaker of the Lebanese Parliament, Nabih Berri, recruited local officials so that they could collect the wounded and inspect the disaster site without the involvement of government forces. The circumstances that caused the explosion are under investigation.
