What they said الحجار ×

Security and stability are a red line, and the security agencies continue to perform their duties and take the necessary measures to preserve them.

No tolerance in protecting citizens and residents

The Information Branch is doing tremendous work and is conducting investigations in parallel in three operations: with the detainees in the Koura hills, the crime of the killing of the former Iraqi MP, in addition to seizing a large quantity of drugs that led to the arrest of those involved during last night.

Tampering with security and stability is prohibited

About 20 people were arrested, most of whom confessed to robbery and pickpocketing operations; security measures are continuing and tampering with security and stability is forbidden

What is required from the Lebanese state and the entire Lebanese people is a single position on all matters. No data on this subject has reached us through coordination channels, but if a meeting takes place soon and this subject is discussed, we are ready to discuss all matters openly.

I said in the statement I issued that I postponed my visit. I hope in the coming days to visit Syria and meet the Syrian minister, and that he will also visit Lebanon, God willing. The goal is to put joint files on the table, and with full openness we cooperate with one another, because we have common interests, and the security of Lebanon and the security of Syria are certainly intertwined, like the security of the whole region.

If my departure solves the problem

We will not allow anyone to undermine trust in the state.

Since the beginning of the current month, 8 pickpocketing incidents and 4 robbery incidents have been recorded across all Lebanese territory.

The security situation in Lebanon is being portrayed as completely lax, but the facts indicate otherwise, and the pumping of exaggerated information means the goal lies elsewhere.

We will take the necessary measures to maintain security when implementing the general amnesty law

I said previously that we are making efforts to arrest criminals, and I do not like to see them outside under the general amnesty law, and this does not mean that everyone who is released will return to committing crimes.

The security forces have never faltered and have not withheld their martyrs from Lebanon, and all the efforts we make are aimed at strengthening the security situation.

Our government has taken decisions to extend the state's authority over all its territory exclusively through its security institutions

We will not allow anyone to undermine confidence in the state

What is the goal of broadcasting false news through the media? If the goal is to target a minister or a government, then we are ready to leave if we are the problem.

Most perpetrators of pickpocketing and robbery are repeat offenders, and they are known to the Internal Security Forces, and we are working to pursue them.

Pumping exaggerated information means that the goal is elsewhere.

We are studying with Beirut police the locations of crimes, the means and weapons used in them, and the times during which they increase

I understand people's outcry, and we in the operations room are monitoring complaints around the clock

Yesterday, 3 robberies occurred, one of them on the airport road where $800,000 was stolen, and we are following this operation specifically.

Since the beginning of the current month, 8 pickpocketing operations and 4 robbery operations have been recorded across all Lebanese territory.

It has become clear to us that pickpocketing operations have decreased significantly, while robbery operations have continued.

The ministry is primarily responsible for citizens' security in all towns, especially Beirut

the necessity of respecting citizens' rights, preserving their dignity, and observing legal and professional standards

the importance of following up on the security measures and procedures taken, in order to preserve security and order and combat crime

No security lapse

Lebanon is fully in solidarity with Saudi Arabia and stands by its side

The army and the security forces carry out their tasks on their own, and they do not need permission to enter any area
