Lebanese Army Interrogating with Israeli who crossed Lebanon’s border

The Lebanese army arrested on Wednesday a 34 years old Israeli man who jumped over the barbed-wire fence in Naqoura and began interrogating him to find out why he entered the Lebanese territory, according to Al-Manar Website correspondent.

The correspondent noted that “the Israeli jumped in a narrow area at the fence in Al-Labbouneh area, south of Naqoura and was arrested by soldiers from the Lebanese army base in the region.”

“A patrol belonging to the Intelligence Directorate arrested an Israeli man after he crossed the technical fence, and the Blue Line in the al-Labbouneh border area inside Lebanese territory,” a Lebanese army statement said. The Israeli detainee was interrogated by an officer from the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), the statement said.

In a similar incident last year, an Israeli who had been arrested in August was later handed to Zionist officials by the UNIFIL.

On Tuesday, six Israeli military aircraft penetrated Lebanese airspace and flew over several areas of the country in blatant violation of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701.
