July 24, 2010 - Naharnet - Yedioth: Bellemare's Second Accusation will Target 20 Hizbullah Officials and Members

The Israeli Yedioth Aharonoth newspaper reported Saturday that the General Prosecutor in the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, Daniel Bellemare, will issue his accusation in two stages, the first of which will indict three to five Hizbullah members.

The second phase, which will take place at the end of the year, will include accusations against 20 of the party's officials and members on charges of being involved in the assassination.

An Israeli intelligence source stated that the internal battle on the Lebanese scene between Prime Minister Saad Hariri and the Hizbullah leadership is causing a rift in Syrian-Iranian relations, adding that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard expects Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to abandon Hizbullah in order to restore Syrian control over Lebanon.
