️🇱🇧🇱🇧🇸🇾 The Lebanese army published a statement regarding a security incident on the Syria-Lebanon border that resulted in the arrest of 12 Syrians:.
"On 11/4/2026, while a military unit was carrying out security measures to prevent smuggling and border control on the outskirts of the town of Arsal on the Lebanon-Syria border, a vehicle equipped with dark windows and without license plates crossed a military checkpoint, on its way from Syrian territory to illegal crossings in Lebanon.
His driver tried to run over the people at the checkpoint, which was an immediate danger to their safety, so they had to fire warning shots to force him to stop. At this point the driver stopped the vehicle and fled to an unknown location.
Upon inspection of the vehicle, it was found that it was transporting 12 Syrian citizens who tried to smuggle them into Lebanese territory. One of them, a woman, was shot, and three other people were injured by flying glass. They were taken to a hospital for treatment, and the woman died a short time later.
An investigation has been opened under the supervision of the judicial system authorized to reveal the circumstances of the incident, and efforts are being made to arrest the fleeing driver."
