Hizbullah sources said the Shiite party had succeeded in absorbing the strife-prone impact of the indictment that is expected to be issued by the Special Tribunal for Lebanon.
In remarks to pan-Arab daily Asharq al-Awsat on Thursday, the sources said: “We expect the indictment to be issued any moment but we consider ourselves that we succeeded in absorbing its strife prone impact.”
“We don’t think it (the indictment) would have any implications on the ground,” they said.
The indictment is expected to name Hizbullah members of involvement in ex-Premier Rafik Hariri’s assassination.
Meanwhile, the Kuwaiti al-Rai newspaper quoted diplomatic sources as saying that “the indictment would cause an earthquake” in Lebanon after reports said it could go beyond the expectations of involved parties.
