“This is the second time that this accommodation has been targeted,” says the occupant of the building targeted by the projectiles.

From her window, she saw around 9 p.m. a vehicle slowing down. Seconds later, she heard the thud of projectiles. “They were three sitting on chairs on the balcony. It’s a miracle that no one received bullets, ”continues the young woman.
