France Reportedly Delays Rocket Supply to Lebanon
France has reportedly delayed a supply of rockets to the Lebanon, Pan-Arab Al-Hayat newspaper said Thursday.
It said the shipment, bound for the Lebanese army, was based on a promise made to outgoing PM Saad Hariri.
Al-Hayat quoted French sources as saying that France has adopted a wait-and-see attitude toward Hizbullah-backed Prime Minister-designate Najib Miqati.
“The issue of rockets is postponed for now,” one source told Al-Hayat.
The source said France “will be cautious. It will wait to see what Miqati is going to do before taking a decision.”
