Hezbollah-affiliated Lebanese newspaper al-Akhbar says the American Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) warned Lebanon about a week ago against an al-Qaeda-related organization planning a terror attack in southern Beirut.
According to the report, the group has brought a large amount of explosives into Lebanon and has prepared explosive devices weighing 7 tons. It is unclear whether the report has to do with an explosion which took place in Beirut two days ago. (Roi Kais)
