Civil Defense personnel recovered the bodies of citizens Yahya Ahmed Abous and Walid Yaacoub Sarkis from the sea off the Batroun coast.
The members of the marine rescue unit and land centers of the Civil Defense extended their search since 2 AM to find the bodies of the citizens who were reported missing near the Kfar Abida beach. The teams conducted comprehensive field sweeps under extremely challenging weather conditions due to high waves and strong currents.
Earlier, the personal belongings and identification documents of Abous and Yaacoub were found in a bag on the beach.
Following numerous incidents on the beaches of Lebanon, notably Jbeil last week due to weather instability, and as a precautionary step, the General Directorate of Civil Defense had issued a statement on Friday warning citizens, residents, and tourists to stay away from the beach due to the impact of the low-pressure weather system, which poses a risk of drowning.
