After arresting 9 SSNP members and 2 trucks of explosives, Ali Kanssouh, the head of SSNP claimed the weapons dated back to the 80s.

However ISF specialists explained yesterday that the weapons could not date back to the 80s and were modern and included “explosives, fuses and detonators “ designed for “terrorist” attacks.

From Naharnet:
The confiscated explosives were displayed to the press at police headquarters in Beirut and an explosives expert told reporters such weapons were designed for “terrorist attacks and assassinations.”

The weapons included electronic detonators, pull-trigger fuses and rigged alarm clocks.
The Police sapper, who cannot be identified in line with standing rules, explained that the pull-trigger fuses can be “tied up to doors, car doors or any doors, and pulling the doors open would detonate bombs.”

He said the weapons were locally made.

Large quantities of TNT paste also were displayed, and the sapper explained that they can be used in the making of “explosives with a variety of shapes.”

That, according to security sources, indicated that the vehicle was to be used in a major terrorist attack, either in an assassination attempt by a squad of gunmen or by rigging it with explosives and detonating it against a chosen target

A rumor was spread that SSNP were preparing to assasinate Geagea in a major operation in Koura but nothing confirmed yet.

    Geaga khayin,

    You believe that a party, that calls itself the Syrian Social Nationalist Party has the right to bare arms in Lebanon? Where do you think their alliegance lies? You still think this is acceptable after all the assassinations attributed to and admitted to by them? Going by that logic, lets let all the Palestinian groups bare arms as well.
