A report in Le Figaro published Friday shed more light on a reported stash of Lebanese weapons  destined for Hezbollah and hidden in Syria. In May, The Jerusalem Post reported that concern is  growing among Western intelligence agencies that Hezbollah might try to transfer  the advanced weaponry it reportedly maintains on Syrian soil if it feels that  President Bashar Assad’s reign is on the verge of ending.
This is not the  first time such information has been revealed. Last year, as the Post reported, Prime Minister Binyamin  Netanyahu revealed in a meeting with Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi  that Hezbollah was storing Scud missiles in military bases in Syria.
