According to "Lebanon Debate" sources, Mahdi Ismael along with his children and Kassem Aboud, who work on buses belonging to Line 5, instigated individuals to vandalize buses belonging to Line 2 in several areas under Firas Al Masri's ownership.
SSTV was able to capture one video of the attack and vandalism of Line 2 buses on Hamra Street, Beirut, causing panic and fear among residents in the area. However, the bus driver managed to escape and move the bus away from the attackers.
Sources indicated that ongoing conflicts between the two parties along the Hamra-Dora road are behind these repeated incidents. Security forces have not yet intervened to resolve the issue, and tensions persist, though bus services have continued despite the unrest.
It is noteworthy that Firas Al Masri has filed complaints against Mehdi Ismael and Kassem Aboud with the relevant authorities.
