WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States has released military aid to Lebanon, a senior State Department official confirmed on Monday.
Earlier on Monday, a congressional aide told Reuters the Trump administration had lifted a hold on security assistance to Lebanon, allowing for the release of $105 million. It was not immediately clear why the aid was blocked or released.
