Israeli spokesman Avichay Adraee said on Friday that Israeli troops thwarted an alleged arms smuggling attempt on the border with Lebanon.
On Twitter, Adraee said Israeli troops allegedly spotted a suspect early in the morning carrying a handbag near the Lebanese town of al-Mtolleh, and then another suspect came from the Israeli side to pick it up.
He added that Israeli army forces “carefully tracked down the smuggling attempt and thwarted it."
