Syrian Foreign Ministry send Friday a statement to the United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki Moon to explain some aspects of the terrorism the country faces.
In his letter, Syria's representative to the UN Security Council, Bashar al-Jaafari, confirmed that "some Lebanese areas on the Lebanese-Syrian border have become an incubator for terrorist elements from the al-Qaida and the Muslim Brotherhood organizations."He also clarified that "these members are tampering with the security of Syria and its citizens," and pointed out that " they are seeking to undermine the six-point plan of UN Special Envoy to Syria Kofi Annan."
In this context, the letter unveils that "arms depots have been created in Lebanon's border areas."
"Weapons are being shipped by sea or on planes belonging to certain countries, which are shipping arms to Lebanon with the aim of smuggling them into Syria," al-Jaafari stated.
The letter also mentioned some incidents "confirming that terrorist groups in Syria are being supplied with arms and that terrorists are being smuggled across the Lebanese-Syrian border."
"The offices of some charitable societies supervised by Salafist groups and the Future Movement in Lebanese border areas ... have been turned into places for receiving and harboring terrorist elements from the al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood organizations," al-Jaafari said.
He also highlighted that "wounded opposition fighters are being treated under fake names in hospitals and dispensaries affiliated with those groups and finance by countries such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar."
"50 Terrorists are stationed in the Northern town of Qalamoun under the command of Khaled al-Tanak, Khaled Hamza and Zakariya Ghaleb al-Khouli," al-Jaafari added.
In parallel , he accused the terrorists " of possessing IDs that carry the UN stamp that they use to go through Lebanese army checkpoints."
Jaafari added in his letter that the Head of the so-called "Free Syrian Army" Colonel Riyadh al-Asaad, "had recently arrived in Lebanon to prepare for creating a Syrian buffer zone within Lebanese territory."
On another context, the Syrian envoy further blamed terrorist groups of severely damaging the tourism sector.
