The army on Friday seized and detonated three Grad rockets in the Bekaa's al-Qaa region.
"At 4:00 pm on Friday, an army patrol seized three 107-millimeter Grad rockets in al-Qaa,” the military institution said in a communique.
It noted that the rockets were set to be launched.
"A military expert arrived to the scene and detonated the seized rockets.”
The army's statement added that the military police has launched an investigation under the supervision of the competent court to uncover who's involved in the incident.
Since the eruption of the Syrian war, Bekaa's Hermel area has repeatedly been targeted with rockets launched by Syria's revolutionaries.
Meanwhile, al-Qaa has been frequently bombed by Syrian warplanes.
