Lebanon Deploys Troops Along Southern Border in Former Hezbollah Positions

MediaLine reports that more than 400 LAF soldiers have deployed together with UNIFIL forces to positions along the border with Israel. The IDF is continuing to withdraw from Lebanon and are expected to be totally removed by the end of this week.

On Sunday, Lebanese forces placed tanks and armored vehicles in border positions previously held by Hezbollah at Mhabib and Hula. New posts were created at Ras Naqura on the Mediterranean coast and at Labbuneh, two miles inland. Two key border areas, near Kiryat Shmona and along the Mediterranean coast at Rosh Hanikra, were turned over by Israeli troops to UNIFIL over the weekend.
