Israel’s military intelligence chief, Maj. Gen. Amos Yadlin, said that Hezbollah was rearming itself after last summer’s war with Israel and that the United Nations peacekeeping force in southern Lebanon was doing nothing to stop it. “Hezbollah has almost totally rebuilt its arsenal of rockets and arms,” General Yadlin was quoted by Army Radio as telling the foreign affairs and defense committee of Parliament. “The traffic of arms from Iran and Syria destined for Hezbollah is continuing, and the peacekeeping force is doing nothing to disarm Hezbollah.” He also said that “dozens, if not hundreds” of Qaeda operatives had arrived in Lebanon.
