Lebanon PM instructs army to find, arrest people responsible for rocket fire at Israel

Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam urges the army to quickly identify and arrest those behind rocket fire toward Israel, after it responded by striking a building in south Beirut for the first time since November.

Salam contacted the army chief and “asked him to act quickly to undertake the necessary investigations to uncover those behind the irresponsible rocket fire that threatens Lebanon’s stability and security,” according to a statement from his office, urging “intensified efforts” to arrest the perpetrators.
