A year after the thirty-three day war in Lebanon, the role of the Iranian regime in this country remains a great concern. Tehran has substantially intensified efforts to fuel conflicts in this war torn nation.
In May, conflict between Lebanese army and a group known as Fatah Al-Islam near Nahar Al-Bared Camp in Tripoli, home to many Palestinian refugees, entered a new phase. The Fatah Al-Islam took positions in the camp, to fight with Lebanese army using civilians as human shields.
According to credible reports and intelligence received from within the Iranian regime and its Supreme National Security Council (SNSC), Fatah Al-Islam has been created by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and its subordinate, the Quds Force in 2005.
