Beirut, November 13 (RHC)-- Thousands of Lebanese have attended a funeral ceremony in southern Beirut for the victims of twin bomb attacks by the Daesh Takfiri terrorist group. Schools and universities were closed Friday as people gathered in Beirut’s southern suburb of Dahieh to mourn the victims of the deadly attacks a day before, where 44 people died.

Mourners waved the portraits of the victims as they expressed rage at the Takfiri groups’ attacks on Lebanon’s Shia and Sunni population. The Takfiri terrorist group Daesh, operating in Syria and Iraq, claimed responsibility for the two attacks on Thursday. Nearly 240 people were also injured in the attacks, the Lebanese Health Ministry said.

The Lebanese government declared Friday a day of national mourning and condemned the attacks as “unjustifiable.” Prime Minister Tammam Salam also called for unity against “plans to create strife” in the country.
