The Lebanese Army announces that Hamas handed over a second Palestinian who was involved in launching rockets at Israel in March, after transferring the first suspect to the army yesterday.

Last weekend, Lebanon warned Hamas not to act in a way that would harm the country’s national security and undermine its stability, and Hamas’s representative in Lebanon, Ahmad Abd al-Hadi, was summoned for a meeting with Lebanese security agencies.

According to Lebanese media, the meeting was described as a reprimand, and reports say Abd al-Hadi was warned not to allow Hamas’s military wing to operate in Lebanon.
