None

Saudi King Abdullah and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad met Lebanon's rival leaders on Friday to stave off a crisis over a tribunal that may indict Hezbollah members in the killing of Lebanese statesman Rafik al-Hariri.

 

A statement from the Lebanese presidency said the leaders had discussed "ways to reinforce national accord and Lebanon's stability" and stressed the need to avoid violence. (Reuters)
