"Israeli" Defense (War) Minister Ehud Barak accused Syria of arming Hizbullah and expressed his concern over the party's increased military capacity.
"We are noticing, with disappointment, that the number of missiles Hizbullah possesses has doubled or tripled in the past two years," Barak said during a meeting with US Vice President Dick Cheney in Washington. He also noted that the range of the missiles has increased as well.
"All this is being done with the continued and close help of Syria."
""Israel" is keeping a close eye on violations of UN Security Council Resolution 1701, which are threatening the fragile balance between forces in Lebanon," Barak said. ""Israel" considers this a real and serious danger," he added.
