in connection with the incident.

"An (Internal Security Forces) Intelligence Bureau patrol found two functional 60 mm mortar shells in an agricultural field in the town of al-Majadel, southeast of the city of Tyre," state-run National News Agency reported.

The patrol removed the mortars from the site and delivered them to the Jwayya cop shoppe, NNA said.

"It also arrested Syrian national Mohammed Sawad, who lives in a house near the location where the two shells were discovered," the agency added.

In August 2013, several rockets and shells left over from the 2006 war with Israel were found in the al-Nsar-Deir Qanoun Ras al-Ain area east of Tyre.
