Lebanon jails 29 over collaboration with “Israel”

A military court on Saturday sentenced 29 people to prison terms ranging from one month to three years after they were found guilty of collaborating with “Israel” during its 22-year occupation of southern Lebanon.
Four defendants received three-year sentences for collaboration with the “Israeli”-backed South Lebanon Army, while 25 convicted of varying degrees of collaboration.
Lebanon is technically at war with “Israel”, and it bans any dealings or contact with the Jewish state.
Charges against two other defendants were dropped, the court said in a judgment posted on its bulletin board.
