Syria Threatens to Ignore Lebanese Border

Syria has warned Lebanon that it will begin firing into Lebanon, unless they start keeping Syrian rebels out of their country.

Rebel forces regularly cross the border, hiding in Lebanon, and coming out to strike against Syrian forces.

The Syrian Foreign Ministry stated that if the Lebanese army does not begin enforcing the border, then the Syrian military will not pay it any attention.

Lebanon has already seen violence, due to the civil war, as many Syrian refugees come to the country, and brought their sectarian strife with them.

It has only served to fuel divisions already present in the country.
