General Security Deports Syrians, Palestinians Detained at Beirut Airport

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

The General Security Department handed over to Syria on Sunday around 50 refugees who were arrested a day earlier in Beirut for trying to flee with forged documents.

A unit from the department accompanied the 49 Syrians and Palestinians to the Jdeidet Yabous crossing and handed them over to the Syrian authorities.

The refugees were arrested at the Rafik Hariri International Airport on Saturday.

They were seeking to travel to an Arab country with false documents.

General Security warned Arabs and foreigners, especially Syrian and Palestinian refugees, against violating residency laws and attempting to travel with forged documents.

wow so we took people trying to escape and gave them to the regime that is killing them? amazing! we have over a million refugees in lebanon so why were these handed over to be killed? this violates international law and human rights charter. who is running this country and the general security department?

They still have around 1,000,000 to go!

Actually there are 22.4 million left to go to see the death of all Syrians but if one merely wishes to remove the Sunni majority you can just kill 16 million. But if one accomplishes that there would be no need to have a Baathist regime to protect everyone from toddler terrorists and elderly assassins using barrel bombs.

sad that lebanon general security is still tied to syria and its agent
in lebanon... even sending people to their death.

Crime against humanity, shame on you and those who support such a decision.

We re not talking aout poor refugees running away from a war. We have done more than our share of hospitality. Those riminals were safe, in lebanon. And still decided to commit a rime by forging documents to travel to a 3 rd country. Immigration did well by deporting them.

I hope Lebanon will be condemned for deporting refugees...

What a patriot!

jaafarani, u got evidence they are terrorists ?
Even if they were, u cant deport them according to international law to a country where they will be tortured and killed without fair trial. Lebanon, controlled by NasrIran, is nothing more than a 3rd world banana republic...

this is not my opinion: this is international law :)

this is my opinion:
the issues have been created by the war in Syria, and the then m8 cabinet refused to create camps for them. if they had done so, it would have been easier to monitor them.

Why not give fake documents to all of them and have them travel to the Arab country of their choice?

You all take things too far. Those guys were not terrorists note refugees they probably came to Beirut the same day just to use the airport, there documents were forged in Syria. So don't worry guys no body will kill them. They were just simple people trying to go somewhere to find a job and apparently it didn't work that's all.
