Salam vows strict investigation after arrest of 5 Hezbollah members near Bsharri-Batroun
Security forces arrested five Hezbollah members on Tuesday on the outskirts of Batroun and Bsharri. The five men reportedly had papers and maps, which they managed to tear up before their arrest.
Journalist Riad Tawk reported in a video published by Beirut Time that the documents contained lists of locations across the Koura, Batroun, and Bsharri districts, as well as references to weapons, including sniper rifles.
The five men are currently under investigation.
Following the incident, Prime Minister Nawaf Salam said the era of absent accountability and impunity has ended, stressing that the ongoing investigations will have no boundary other than the rule of law.
