South Lebanon police arrested two Syrian nationals in the southern towns of Hasbaya and Nabatieh on charges of collaborating with terror groups in Syria, Naharnet reported Friday (December 22nd).
The General Directorate of State Security in Nabatieh had closely monitored the suspects, finding that they were in contact with Tahrir al-Sham, an extremist alliance dominated by the former al-Nusra Front (ANF), and other armed groups in Syria's Beit Jinn and Maghar al-Mir.
The suspects confessed during interrogations to have smuggled several individuals, including a Lebanese radical to Beit Jinn, the National News Agency reported.
They said they had provided the terror groups in Beit Jinn and Maghar al-Mir with raw materials and military and medical supplies.
