Defense: Iran to sell advanced anti-aircraft systems to Lebanon

Arutz Sheva reports that according to Lebanese media, Iran has offered to sell the Lebanese army a variety of weapons. The Lebanese have expressed interest in the offer, and have asked for advanced anti-aircraft systems.

The request for advanced air defense could be a reaction to heightened tensions between Israel and Lebanon in wake of Hezbollah's increased power in the Lebanese government.
