The military prosecutor charged 15 terror suspects, including the head of the Lebanese branch of al Qaeda, Toufik Tah; Abdullah Azzam Brigades' religious guide Sirajeddine Zuraiqat; and Raed Taleb. The suspects are accused of membership in the Abdullah Azzam Brigades, taking terror training in Syria and in the Ain al Hilweh camp, working with Jund al Sham in north Lebanon, and planning assassinations and bombings. A Saudi member of an Islamic State of Iraq and the Sham suicide bombing team blew himself up in a Beirut hotel yesterday as security forces stormed the room, injuring another Saudi suspect; a third suspect escaped during the raid. Following the raid, authorities arrested a Swedish national of Lebanese origin who allegedly provided explosives and suicide vests to the team.
