Monday 25 June 2012 BEIRUT: Lebanese security officials say the headquarters of a leading TV station was attacked with burning tires after it hosted a hard-line Sunni Muslim cleric who harshly criticized the country's Shiite Muslim leaders. Video footage of the Monday night attack taken by security cameras and broadcast on local television showed five masked figures attacking the headquarters of Al-Jadeed TV in Beirut. Security officials said yesterday the armed attackers also fired several shots at the building, which was damaged only lightly, leaving no casualties. The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to release the information, believe the attack came in response to the secular channel's interview with Sunni cleric Sheik Ahmad al-Asser.
