On 1 November 2014 The Daily Star reported (The Daily Star, 1 November 2014
see Annexure B hereto) that a booby-trapped rocket and five bombs had been
discovered in Tripolis vegetable market on 31 October 2014. The Lebanese Army
continues to unearth caches of automatic weapons in the region, which it alleges can
be traced back to Salafist militants.
Salafists have also expressed violent opposition to the Future Movement. A video
posted on the Internet shows Salafists threatening to burn down all Future Movement
offices.

(Message of the Fighters in the Bab al-Hariri
to the President in Response to His Latest Actions), the video shows an armed
speaker, flanked by three armed fighters. All four men are heavily masked. The
speaker denounces former Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri: You sold the blood
of martyrs, you sold the blood of your own father just to reach power, he states. He
warns of a day of anger, adding that if Sunnis were to be harmed they would burn
down the Future Movements offices in the northern Lebanese city of Tripoli. A news
report summarising the gunmans speech can be located on the Web (Alakhbar
