Hezbollah Mission Probe

Lebanon’s Internal Security Forces detained five members of Hezbollah in a mountainous area between the districts of Bsharri and Batroun. Investigators are focusing on why they were there and how they were moving around. Preliminary information suggests they were carrying out a reconnaissance mission and surveying the area. Papers and maps were found in their possession, some of which they reportedly tried to tear up. Investigators are also looking into the possibility that others were monitoring their movements remotely. Prime Minister Nawaf Salam said the investigation would proceed in accordance with the law. The case has prompted political calls for its circumstances to be clarified and those involved held accountable, as well as warnings against exploiting it to stir sectarian or regional tensions.
