Report: Wissam al-Hassan to Become Lebanon’s New Ambassador to Riyadh

Police Intelligence chief Col. Wissam al-Hassan could be appointed ambassador to Saudi Arabia to replace Maj. Gen. Marwan Zein, whose mission ends next December, an informed ministerial source told al-Liwaa daily Monday.

The source expected the head of the Internal Security Forces Maj. Gen. Ashraf Rifi to remain in his post.

He said appointments would be made to fill vacant positions in the ISF leadership.

The source’s remarks to al-Liwaa came as the cabinet is making appointments and holding talks on changes in top posts of security agencies.
