Two people were lightly wounded Tuesday as Israel blew up a spy device planted on the Marjeyoun Plain road in southern Lebanon, state-run National News Agency reported.

It said the two men were working in the area of the blast, “which is several kilometers away from the border with the Israeli town of Metulla.”

“The army and security forces immediately arrived on the scene and cordoned off the area and the two sides of the road to preserve the safety of citizens,” NNA added.

“A probe was launched after the blown up device was extracted,” the agency said.

Hizbullah's al-Manar television said the blast was caused by two explosive devices that were connected to the spy device.

Several similar devices were discovered in the South in recent years, some of them booby-trapped.

In September 2014, Hizbullah military expert Hussein Haidar was killed as an Israeli drone remotely detonated a spy device he was dismantling in the southern coastal town of Adloun.

that's definitely not the truth, it's a baseless sectarian propaganda line. now obviously there are always spies that are found within the target of the spying, which in our case is hezbollah. they dont need spies in lebanese forces for instance, since they own and run it.
