BEIRUT - According to An-Nahar newspaper, a fight between Amal and Future Movement supporters occurred yesterday night on Mohammad al-Hout Street in Beirut. 

Both sides exchanged gunfire until the Lebanese army stepped in. 

Partisans attacked cars and properties claiming that they wanted to remove the other party’s flags that were hanging in the area. In return, party members hung posters and flags in other parts of the neighborhood. 

Al-Mustaqbal newspaper quoted eyewitnesses as saying that Amal supporters attacked the Dhi-Annoureine Mosque and injured several worshippers, who were taken to the hospital.
