Local Editor

Hours after kidnapping and terrorizing more than 200 Lebanese from the Rabla village, the so-called Free Syrian Army continued its brutal aggressions against Lebanon.
 
Al-Manar television reported Tuesday that "armed groups abducted dozens of Lebanese Christian nationals residing in the Syrian town of Rabla."
Later, the armed groups released the abductees, who mostly work in agriculture, after terrorizing them.
On Wednesday, the Lebanese citizen Abdullah Mrad (45 years) was instantly killed and his brother Mamdouh was wounded when they came under fire from the FSA group. The two brothers , who head from Ham, were in the northeastern border town of al-Tufail.

In parallel, the National News Agency reported that the wounded man was rushed to the hospital in a critical condition.
Meanwhile, Lebanese Army has intercepted a vehicle laden with military equipment which was destined for the armed groups in Syria.
The army said on Tuesday that the vehicle was seized at a checkpoint near the al-Qaa border crossing in east Lebanon. Five Syrian nationals, who had been illegally residing in Lebanon, were also on board.

The equipment seized includes hand grenades and communication hardware.
Moreover, the LA stormed into a cave in the heights of Mount Bireh in Rashaya District, and found suspicious weaponry. Media reported that these arms belonged to the so-called Free Syrian army.
The seized items, including Kalashnikov rifles, helmets, munitions, batteries, cell phones, and military suits, are thought to be used in kidnapping operations.
Few days ago, FSA members infiltrated into the Lebanese territories and attacked twice Lebanese military posts near the borders with Syria.

Since the beginning of unrest in Syria, Lebanese army has seized a large number of consignments of weapons and ammunitions bound for insurgents in Syria.
