The Israeli-Lebanese border incident will not have any serious consequences, the Arabist, Doctor of History Samvel Karabekyan told NEWS.am.

According to him, it is the result of Israel’s policy of many moves in the region. It is piece of mosaic that is rather difficult to form into a single whole. “At present I have not enough information, but I can say that the domestic situation is rather complicated in Lebanon. There are serious interfaith problems there. Hezbollah and others – that could have been an internal provocation of an external aggression,” Karabekyan said. He stressed that Israel is not “clean” either. “Sometimes the Palestinian problem forces Israel into steps that, at first sight, have nothing to do with it,” the expert said. “Time will show,” Karabekyan added.
