Report: IS Threatens Holy Spirit University of Kaslik

The Islamic State extremist group issued a threat against a number of world targets, including the Holy Spirit University of Kaslik, reported An Nahar daily on Sunday.

The threat prompted the university administration to cancel an academic event that was scheduled at the campus on Sunday.

An Nahar said that seven targets were announced by the IS.

They include three locations in Paris, two in Rome, one in Indonesia, and the Holy Spirit University of Kaslik.

A security source told the daily that there are no specific details about the nature of the attack that the IS may make.

Lebanese authorities have however been informed of the threat and “they are taking the necessary measures to confront every terrorist act.”

“The security forces take every rumor or piece of information seriously,” stressed the source.

It complained however of “the lack of a national strategy to confront terrorism given the vacuum in the presidency” and government paralysis.

Last week, the IS claimed responsibility for a twin suicide bombing at Beirut's southern suburbs of Bourj al-Barajneh, a Hizbullah stronghold.

At least 43 people were killed in the blast, the worst such attack in years.
