Traffic diverted away from Lebanese oil facility as fire blazes, says source

BEIRUT (Reuters) – Traffic was being diverted away from Lebanon’s Zahrani oil facility on Monday after a fire broke out at a gasoline storage tank, a security source told Reuters.

The areas surrounding the fire, which was still not under control, were being cooled to prevent it spreading, the source said.
