Army Arrests Suspect in Wadi Khaled, Seizes Arms, Ammunition
A suspect was arrested Sunday in the Akkar border region of Wadi Khaled, hours after security forces arrested a would-be suicide bomber at the Costa cafe in Beirut's Hamra district.
“Following surveillance, an army force raided this morning the house of a suspect in the Akkar region of Wadi Khaled, where he was arrested,” an army statement said.
“Six assault rifles, 13 hand grenades, a rifle-fired grenade and around 10,000 light-caliber bullets and a quantity of military gear were seized in his house,” the statement added.
The detainee and the seized arms were referred to the relevant authorities for further measures.
