A Lebanese man who climbed over the Israeli border into an empty guard post last night has been returned to Lebanon, the military says.

According to the IDF, the suspect spent some 10 minutes in Israel before he was detained, near the town of Misgav Am.

The unarmed man is questioned and returned to Lebanon through the Rosh Hanikra Crossing, via the United Nation’s peacekeeping force, UNIFIL.
