According to an account published by the commentator's own channel, two Lebanese medical students, aged 25 and 27, were arrested in Belarus on suspicion of attempting to assassinate Iraqi commentator Ibrahim Musa. The suspects allegedly tracked him for four years and attempted to poison his hookah before one fired a shot at close range. The information is based on Musa's account and has not been officially confirmed by Belarusian authorities.
The published account alleges that the two suspects, described as Lebanese Shia medical students, followed Ibrahim Musa for approximately four years due to his criticism of the Iranian regime and its Supreme Leader. They allegedly attempted to poison his hookah during a private birthday party, and when he stopped using it, one suspect shot at him at close range. The suspect was subdued by a companion, and the second suspect was identified via security cameras and detained. Belarusian police have arrested both, and they face trial on suspicion of attempted murder. No official confirmation from Belarusian authorities has been issued as of this report.
