Breaking: On the Security Operation Led by Wafiq Safa at Beirut Airport

Allegations have circulated on social media claiming that Wafiq Safa, the coordinator and liaison officer for Hezbollah in Lebanon, stormed Beirut International Airport to secure the release of Rifaat al-Assad’s granddaughter and her mother from detention. These claims sparked widespread controversy, prompting relevant authorities to clarify the facts.

The circulated reports alleged that Safa led a “security operation” inside the airport and issued orders to release several individuals, including the granddaughter and her mother. However, available information confirms that this narrative is entirely fabricated and has no basis in reality.

The relevant authorities emphasized that the granddaughter and her mother remain in detention and urged caution in disseminating news that could cause confusion or stir unnecessary controversy.

The incident highlights the importance of verifying sources and refraining from spreading rumors that may mislead public opinion.
