BAALBEK, Lebanon: Lebanon鈥檚 army on Sunday took over security checkpoints manned by Hezbollah in the party鈥檚 eastern stronghold Baalbek, a day after a Shiite-Sunni shootout killed four people, a Hezbollah source said.
It was the second time this week that Hezbollah handed over control of its checkpoints to the army, after the military deployed in the southern suburbs of Beirut.
鈥淲e have handed over to the Lebanese army our checkpoints at the entrances and in the center of the city,鈥� a Hezbollah source told AFP on condition of anonymity.
鈥淲e are now working on handing over other checkpoints, until the military takes control of them all and it becomes responsible for security.鈥�
Hezbollah set up its own security checkpoints in areas under its control after bombings that wounded more than 50 people on July 9 and killed 27 on August 15.
Militants were deployed for weeks to search vehicles and check people鈥檚 identity cards.
Sunday鈥檚 handover comes a day after four people, including two Hezbollah fighters, were killed in a clash with Sunni gunmen in Baalbek.
It was not immediately clear what triggered the fighting at a Hezbollah-manned checkpoint.
鈥淲e were preparing to hand over the checkpoints to the army before yesterday鈥檚 incident, but the incident delayed the handover by a day,鈥� said the Hezbollah source.
An AFP correspondent in Baalbek said Hezbollah militants have withdrawn from the checkpoints, and that the city was calm despite Saturday鈥檚 violence.
Hezbollah is a powerful force, particularly in the southern suburbs of Beirut and eastern and southern Lebanon, where it has been accused of running a 鈥渟tate-within-a-state.鈥�
Hezbollah, whose military wing was blacklisted by the European Union in July, did not disarm at the end of the 1975-1990 civil war, arguing that it needed to protect Lebanon from Israel.
It is backed by Iran and is a staunch supporter of the embattled regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad.
Hezbollah has found itself targeted in Lebanon over its involvement in Syria, where it has dispatched fighters to battle alongside Assad鈥檚 forces against rebels determined to topple him.
This involvement has divided opinion in Lebanon, where many Shiites back the regime and many Sunnis support the Sunni-dominated uprising.
