Lebanese army raids captagon production facility on Lebanon-Syria border

The Lebanese army said it dismantled a captagon production facility near the Syrian border as part of its ongoing efforts to combat drug manufacturing and trafficking.

In a statement, the army said a unit backed by military intelligence raided a lab in the Hermel area, seizing a large quantity of captagon pills and raw materials used in their production.

The confiscated items were handed over to the relevant authorities, and an investigation is underway.
