(opens the publisher’s site)Lebanon's judiciary has issued arrest and summons orders for two Hezbollah members linked to a 500-kilogram explosives shipment authorities intercepted this month.
- Security forces stopped a truck carrying TNT and C-4 at a checkpoint, the third and largest consignment seized this month.
- Public prosecutor Rami al-Hajj ordered the suspects' arrest, while military court judge Claude Ghanem issued summonses after investigations identified both.
- Hezbollah MP Hassan Fadlallah said the vehicle and its cargo belonged to the resistance and were used against Israeli occupation.
- President Joseph Aoun and Prime Minister Nawaf Salam committed to pursuing the investigation, and army units deployed in Beirut's southern suburbs.
- Lebanon's government is expected on Thursday to discuss referring the seized explosives case to the Judicial Council, a special court for sensitive trials.
