Report: Security Forces Obtain Telecom Data Linked to Dahr al-Baydar Blast
Investigations in Friday's car bombing in the Dahr al-Baydar region are underway with the concerned authorities looking into telephone calls linked to the incident, as well as surveillance camera footage, reported the pan-Arab daily al-Hayat on Sunday.
It revealed that the authorities have obtained the telecom data connected to the attack.
The data will help uncover the activities prior to the bombing and the route taken by the attacker.
The data may also lead to other potential attacks, said the daily.
The security forces have meanwhile been conducting searches for potential suicide bombers.
They have carried out sweeps of several regions where suspected terrorists may be hiding, added al-Hayat.
The security forces did not however disclose the areas they have been searching.
A member of the Internal Security Forces was killed and at least 30 people were wounded in a car bombing that targeted an ISF checkpoint in the Dahr al-Baydar area in the eastern Bekaa region on Friday.
