According to a report released by the Public Relations Division of the Internal Security Forces (ISF), continuous operations to crack down on drug trafficking across various regions of Lebanon recently yielded significant results. Information gathered by ISF's Intelligence Branch led to the identification of an unidentified individual distributing drugs primarily in the Mount Lebanon area, specifically Metn.
Following ongoing investigations, the branch managed to identify the suspect as:
K. H. (born in 2008, Syrian national)
On June 3, 2026, a well-coordinated surveillance operation resulted in the arrest of the suspect in Zalka during an attempt to sell drugs while riding a white motorcycle without a license plate. The search revealed possession of:
- Six bags of hashish
- Three bags of marijuana
- Three envelopes of cocaine
- Eighteen plastic containers of cocaine
- Four envelopes marked with 'COC' containing cocaine
- Four bags of Captagon pills weighing approximately 62 grams
Additional items such as rolling paper, a pipe for drug consumption, two cell phones, and a sum of money were also seized.
Upon interrogation, the suspect confessed to using and distributing drugs to several clients across Mount Lebanon. Legal proceedings were conducted, and he, along with the seized items, was handed over to the concerned authority under the guidance of the competent judiciary.
