The Press Office of former prime minister, Saad Hariri, issued the below press release on Sunday:
“Commenting on what Al-Hadath TV reported regarding former Prime Minister Hariri's visit to the Bekaa 11 days ago, the information in the report is generally correct, but in order to prevent interpretation, especially the one taking place on social media, the Press Office would like to clarify the following:
Former prime minister Hariri was informed by the security services of an explosion that occurred in the area on the same day. But since the convoy was not subjected to any attack, and in order to prevent any exploitation in light of the prevailing tension, his decision was to remain quiet about the matter and await the results of the investigation of the concerned security services.”
