After a tense standoff with raised weapons, a U.S. border patrol agent turned back a pair of armed Mexican soldiers that had crossed the border on foot just outside Sasabe, Arizona, last January.

On the morning of Jan. 26, U.S. Border Patrol Agent David Olaya spotted two armed men walk onto U.S. soil nearly 2 1/2 miles west of the Sasabe Port of Entry. The lone agent confronted the subjects, who were wearing camouflage and appeared to be “Mexican personnel,” and after a harrowing standoff they lowered their Heckler & Koch G3 rifles and turned back towards Mexico, BuzzFeed reports.

The soldiers identified themselves as part of the Mexican military’s 80th Battalion, but the names they provided didn’t match the name on their uniforms. When Olaya questioned why they had crossed the international border, they said they “had been pursing [sic] three subjects that were seen in the area.”

Last week a French consulate employee was arrested at a border checkpoint after a large quantity of gold, tobacco, checks and cellphones was found in his diplomatic vehicle. 

Following the arrest he was deported back to France with his belongings confiscated.  The french government has denied any involvement or knowledge about the shipment.

In an interview with FRANCE 24, Vincent Floriani, a spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Paris, said the driver was travelling on his own account, privately, and not on behalf of the embassy.

He insisted that the French and Israeli authorities had cooperated fully. “We have absolutely no tolerance for this kind of behaviour,” he said.

AFP reported that the driver was carrying “152 kg of gold, mostly in bars; 500 kg of tobacco; hundreds of new cell phones; and nearly $ 2 million in checks.”

Its difficult to speculate what exactly was taking place here.  Was it some sort of back end deal or clandestine shipment between governments?  Was it a robbery or the results of massive arms deal?  Leave your suggestions in the comments below.

Lebanon introduces warning smartphone apps as Syria war at risk of crossing borders

Lebanese military as well as individual entrepreneurs have created smartphone apps aimed at warning their citizens of military action. This is against a backdrop of the Syrian conflict potentially crossing borders into neighboring states.

One of the new apps is designed to inform people of gunfights, to suggest routes around roadblocks using crowd sourced data, the Financial Times reported.

Since its launch, the application called Ma2too3a has been downloaded by more than 80,000 users.

“In other places in the world, the only thing that might obstruct your path is traffic,” Mohammad Taha, an entrepreneur working for Berytech, the first Lebanese business development center, pointed out. “In Lebanon there are many things that can happen.”

The Lebanese army is keeping up with the individual entrepreneurs, announcing the development of its own LAF (Lebanese Armed Forces) Shield application for iOS and Android. The application gives data on suspicious objects, vehicles and violence in the area.

Lebanese citizens will also have the chance to communicate directly with army personnel in case of kidnap or forced confinement, according to a statement from the army.

LAF Shield allows people to take photographs, record videos, or send messages linked to their security, the Army Command also indicated.

It also allows them to identify “dangerous sites” such as places where security incidents happened through an interactive site.

Plus, LAF Shield makes it possible for users to download army songs. 

Meanwhile, another entrepreneur is developing a smartphone application called “Way to Safety” that distinguishes the sound of gunfire from the sound of fireworks. Firas Wazneh believes that an app of this kind could come in handy in the country “where manic partying often overlaps with political violence.”

The application is also able to calculate the location of the gun fighting.

The news about the newly-introduced application comes amidst concerns that the Syrian conflict may escalate and affect neighboring states, including Lebanon.

Lebanon in fact went through a major civil war between 1975 and 1990, so its citizens are somewhat used to military action.

“We’ve had a lot of practice: the civil war was not just a couple of years,” art teacher Joumana Bou Khaled said.
