Al-Manar exclusively shows a footage taken by a surveillance camera in the area. It reveals the suicide bombings near the Iranian embassy in Beirut.
The first suicide bomber was walking in the place normally and then suddenly approached the main gate at the entrance to the Iranian embassy and blew himself up in an attempt to open the gate and make way for the second bomber to enter.
Immediately, the second bomber - driving a four-wheel drive of GMC type - moved towards the embassy with a view to storm it.
He collided with a small water-distribution white truck which was in the place accidently and stopped after the first explosion.
Feeling confused after the first blast, the truck driver escaped the place leaving his vehicle parked near the embassy gate.
The second bomber could not progress over.
Embassy guards fired at him once they recognized his presence, but he blew himself up just meters from the outer wall of the embassy, which was only slightly damaged.
