Army Raids Gathering for Syrian Refugees in Tyre, Arrests person
The army carried out a raid on Sunday on a gathering for Syria refugees in Tyre's al-Shawakeer area and arrested a person.
The National News Agency said: “Army troops including an engineering team, raided a gathering for Syrian refugees in Tyre's al-Shawakeer area in front of Basel al-Assad cultural center.”
Two people were arrested during the raid, and one of them was freed afterwards, added NNA.
Army troops have been carrying out raids on encampments and Syrian gathering areas in different places around Lebanon, since the outbreak of the clashes in Arsal last August and has intensified it after the clashes in Tripoli and the North erupted against armed groups.
The army arrested a number of Syrians either for joining terrorist groups or for wandering in the Lebanese territories illegally, just like what happened in Manyara in Akkar, where the army arrested 19 Syrians last month.
