The army deployed heavily in the Bab al-Tabbaneh neighborhood in the northern coastal city of Tripoli on Monday and detained a number of militants, who have engaged in deadly battles with the military since Friday.

The military said in a communique that troops found several arms depots and a factory for manufacturing bombs during raids in Bab al-Tabbaneh.

“Army units are carrying out their operation in Tripoli and nearby areas. They entered the hub of the terrorist groups, detaining several, while others fled,” the army added.
