Attack in Syria "Reveals New Hizbullah Smuggling Route"
(Ynet News) Roi Kais - The purported attack by Israel against weapons depots in Syria on Sunday has revealed new smuggling routes into Lebanon, Asharq Al-Awsat reported Monday. The airstrike at Dimas occurred 40 km. from the traditional smuggling routes between Syria and Lebanon. Rami Abdul Rahman of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said, "the Dimas area contains weapons caches, including at least one with rockets." He said they were storage facilities that had become a repository for Hizbullah weapons and that Hizbullah was believed to command some of them, despite the fact that Syria's Fourth Division was officially in control. Rahman added that the evidence suggested Hizbullah was concentrating its rockets in the facilities before transporting them to Lebanon. The Saudi newspaper Al Watan quoted Syrian opposition sources who said the facilities were utterly destroyed.
