The explosives truck seized in Dahr al-Baidar was not the only one that passed through that area, diplomats quoted a report received by a foreign embassy in Beirut as saying.
According to the Nidaa al-Watan newspaper, the report estimated that seven trucks passed along that road from the Bekaa to Beirut, and that the two individuals in the truck were not the only ones tasked with such a mission, with investigations focusing on identifying other involved individuals.
The report adds that Hezbollah has formed “separate cells -- each consisting of two or three people -- with no cell aware of the other, which complicates the investigation.”
A Lebanese judge on Tuesday ordered two Hezbollah officials to appear for questioning over their alleged involvement in the delivery of the explosives seized in Dahr al-Baidar, a judicial official told AFP.
Lebanese authorities had been carrying out investigations after arresting two suspected Hezbollah members accused of transporting half a ton of explosives, which the Iran-backed group subsequently said were part of its "capabilities" to be used against Israel.
Lebanese authorities last year committed to disarming Hezbollah after months of cross-border hostilities culminated in a 2024 war between the group and Israel.
But Hezbollah drew Lebanon into the Middle East war this year by attacking Israel, which responded with heavy strikes and a ground invasion.
In June, Lebanese and Israeli authorities signed a framework agreement which involves the disarmament of Hezbollah, a gradual Israeli withdrawal from territories it occupies, and the deployment of the Lebanese Army to the area.
Hezbollah, the only armed group that refused to disarm after Lebanon's 1975-1990 civil war, has rejected surrendering its weapons and the direct negotiations with Israel.
