BEIRUT, Mar 3 (NNN-KUNA) -- Lebanese security sources said Saturday police found a cache of explosives in south Lebanon, in working order.
Speaking to Kuwait News Agency (KUNA), the sources said security forces found fake explosive devices in a wooden box on the highway leading to Sidon.
Lebanese civilians meanwhile found seven mortar shells places in a bag near the road between Ansar and Al-Zrariya southern villages.
The sources said the security forces immediately showed up and found out that there are three live 120mm mortar rounds and four grenades.
The authorities fear more such discoveries in Lebanese districts, especially after advanced shells and explosives were found recently in Sidon, Ain Al-Hilweh Palestinian Refugee Camp, Akar, and Al-Ashrafiyah in Beirut.
