UN: Arms still smuggled into Lebanon from Syria
Lebanon regularly reports arms being smuggling into the country from Syria but the authorities are treading softly due to their fragile political situation, a senior UN envoy said on Monday.
Government officials have informed the United Nations of smuggling as recently as "The last few weeks," although they are providing no information on the quantities or types of arms being secreted across the border, said Terje Roed-Larsen, the top UN Diplomat on Lebanese ties with Syria. (Reuters)
