Leb Army Sends Reinforcements to Northern Border
2012-07-11
[An Nahar] The Lebanese army on Tuesday began sending troop reinforcements to the northern border with strife-torn Syria after deadly attacks in the region, an army front man told Agence La Belle France Presse.

"Yes, we have started to reinforce our troops, and the operation will take us a week to 10 days to complete," the front man said on condition of anonymity.

The cabinet decided on Monday evening to dispatch army reinforcements to the border area in the north, after a series of frontier incidents in recent months, some of them deadly.

Syrian troops and gunnies traded gunfire overnight in the border area and shells fell inside Leb, wounding civilians, the army said earlier.

SANA confirmed the violence and said on Tuesday that troops foiled attempts by "armed terrorist groups" to infiltrate the border from Leb during the night.
