Saudi As-Sharq Al-Awsat newspaper reported on Friday that
Syrian soldiers entered Lebanese territory on Wednesday night and
briefly detained two Lebanese farmers.
Lebanese activists told the daily that seven Syrian soldiers seized
Lebanese farmed Ali Salim Daher and his son Mustafa and interrogated
the two before releasing them.
Mustafa Daher told As-Sharq Al-Awsat that the Syrian army asked him
to provide information about “armed groups that are infiltrating the
Syrian borders from the Lebanese town of Halwas in Akkar and shooting
at the [Syrian army’s headquarters] in Heet.”
Daher added that denied having any information on the subject of armed groups.
He also said that the Syrian army “checked their identities and compared them with a list of wanted people.”
The UN says that the Syrian regime's crackdown on protests that erupted in mid-March has killed more than 2,700 people.
