| [AnNahar] The front of the northeastern border town of Arsal and the various Syrian refugee encampments pose a danger to Leb, said a security source to As Safir newspaper on Tuesday. It said that the encampments are a threat given the recent firing against a military helicopter, revealing that aerial footage confirm the existence of arms caches there. Furthermore, it noted the spread of terrorist cells throughout Leb ?which explain the army and security agencies' arrest of various terror suspects? over the past months. Leb meanwhile inked on Monday the first phase of the Saudi-French grant to the Lebanese army, which is aimed at improving the military's capabilities to combat terrorists. The development will allow the army and security agencies ?to be more prepared and capable in confronting any terrorist adventure,? the security source told the daily. ?The army is not too far away from completely taking control of its confrontation with terrorists,? it added. The source revealed that Leb urged the speeding up of the armament of the military ?allowing it to take the initiative that will lead to the release of the servicemen kidnapped from Arsal.? Commenting on the case, the source said: ?The captive servicemen are a valuable card for the Islamists.? ?I do not think that they will let go of it even if all Roumieh Prison detainees are released,? it said. The gunnies have been demanding the release of Islamist inmates from the jail in return for the release of the servicemen. Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula.
