BEIRUT: Two terror suspects detained in northeast Lebanon Tuesday could play a vital role in uncovering terrorist networks operating in Lebanon, according to a report published by As-Safir Wednesday.

An Army statement Tuesday said cousins Omar and Bilal Mikati, both from the northern city of Tripoli, belonged to a terrorist organization and were involved in attacks against the Lebanese Army and other terrorist operations.

The two suspects, whose confessions provided valuable information on terror networks and dormant cells operating in Lebanon, were immediately transferred to the headquarters of military intelligence in Yarze, according to the report.
