On Nov. 14, two days after the explosion, Nasrallah gave another speech. Condemning the attacks in Beirut and Paris, he hailed the efforts of the Lebanese security forces, mainly the Information Branch, which is known for being very close to the Future Movement. Nasrallah praised “the achievement of the security forces, especially the Information Branch, in following up closely with the resistance security, in an extensive and professional manner.” He added, “For the upcoming days, we must continue to work closely together, as we have done previously in the face of car bombings,” concluding, “The international community is busy and we are able to face our problems and find solutions if there is a will and seriousness.”
The ISF’s Information Branch succeeded in dismantling the network behind the Nov. 12 bombing, according to Lebanese Interior Minister Nouhad Machnouk, who said, “There are seven Syrians who have been arrested, aside from the two suicide bombers. There are two Lebanese who have been detained, one of them a [would-be] suicide bomber and the other a trafficker who smuggled them across the border from Syria.”
