General Security Chief Abbas Ibrahim on Monday affirmed that they have received information about a possible scheme aimed at targeting Beirut’s airport, saying that they have brought the information to those concerned.

Following his meeting with Speaker Nabih Berri, Ibrahim stressed that the aim of the economic security committee that was earlier formed to tackle the country’s financial situation is to try stabilizing the exchange rate of the US dollar.

 "We have established an operations room at the General Security's General Directorate to follow up on the illegal traffickers of US dollars in the country," he added.
