Hizbullah leader Hassan Nasrallah called on Lebanese prosecutors to seek the capital punishment against all recently captured Israeli agents. In a televised address on Friday commemorating the ninth anniversary of the Israeli withdrawal from south Lebanon, Nasrallah said: "I call for the capital punishment for all arrested agents and beginning with the Shiite agents first."

 

He cautioned that any Lebanese working for Israeli intelligence is dangerous saying: "espionage rings do not only work on gathering data, some carry out operations. A 20 Kg of TNT were uncovered at the home of one agent this brings up a lot of questions."
