The Lebanese army has arrested and will trial the rouge (?”rogue”?…Ed.) soldier who shot and killed St.-Sgt. Maj. Shlomi Cohen, Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon said on Tuesday.

In a meeting with UNIFIL officials, Lebanese officers briefed their IDF counterparts on the results of their investigation of the soldier, saying he acted on his own accord.

The Lebanese army is expected to update the IDF on the case.
