Citing sources close to the investigation into Wednesday's attempted assassination of Samir Geagea, Lebanon's an-Nahar newspaper said that the shooting was carried out by snipers. They targeted the head of the Lebanese Forces (LF) some 1.5 km from the LF's HQ in Meerab. The newspaper also reported that the initial probe indicated that the weapon used by the snipers is "very sophisticated" and "virtually unavailable in Lebanon". It concluded attackers used the "Steyr HS.50, with the 12.7mm caliber", a sniper rifle manufactured in Austria.
