BAALBEK, Lebanon: Military Intelligence arrested Sunday five people in Baalbek suspected of planning a "major terrorist plot" and referred them to the judiciary, according to the National News Agency.
“Army intelligence agents apprehended a group of five people who were plotting a terrorist act,” the state-run NNA said.
Among the arrested was Omar al-Satem, the brother of Qutaiba al-Satem, who blew himself up in Haret Hreik in January 2014, according to the NNA.
A security source told The Daily Star that four Syrian nationals and one Lebanese from Arsal riding a minibus were arrested at a checkpoint in Harbata, as they were reportedly heading to Arsal hills to provide Syrian opposition forces with aid.
