| [Ynet] A Syrian woman has been hospitalized on Tuesday after setting herself on fire to protest difficult living conditions for refugees in Leb, Lebanese police said. The woman set herself ablaze in front of the offices for a UN relief agency in the northern Lebanese city of Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... . She is in now stable condition at the city's Al-Salam hospital, police said. Hospital officials identified the woman as Miriam Abdulkader, a mother of four from the Syrian city of Homs. She has lived in Tripoli for two years.
Meanwhile in the Bekaa, the owner of a gas station who was forced to close his business also set himself on fire, said NNA. It said that Fawzi Nakhleh set himself on fire after Internal Security Forces closed down his station in Aana in the western Bekaa. Civil Defense teams soon headed to the scene to put out the blaze. Nakhle was taken to Chtaura Hospital for treatment. An officer at the scene was lightly injured in the incident and he has since been taken to Farhat Hospital for treatment.
