The General Security announced on Saturday that it arrested a suspect linked to the November 2015 suicide attacks in the southern suburbs of Beirut.

It said that it detained Aa.Aa.Y. for transporting one of the bombers to the blast cite.

On November 12, two suicide attacks rocked a busy shopping street in Beirut's southern suburb of Bourj al-Barajneh, killing 43 people and wounding over 239 others.

The extremist Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the attack.

Media reports later in November said that one of the individuals who had transported the bombers was killed in an ambush by the Syrian army and Hizbullah fighters in Syria.

He was identified as Abdul Salam Abdul Razzaq al-Hindawi.
