How true of a story? Terrorists caught in the U.S planning attacks in Panama.

Two Members Of Hezbollah Arrested.They Were Surveilling Airports, Military Facilities, And The Panama Canal.

This is what Joon H. Kim , acting U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York said:

"Today, we announce serious terrorism charges against two men who allegedly trained with and supported the Islamic Jihad Organization, a component of the foreign terrorist organization Hezbollah. Recruited as Hezbollah operatives, Samer El Debek and Ali Kourani allegedly received military-style training, including in the use of weapons like rocket-propelled grenade launchers and machine guns for use in support of the group’s terrorist mission. At the direction of his Hezbollah handlers, El Debek allegedly conducted missions in Panama to locate the U.S. and Israeli Embassies and to assess the vulnerabilities of the Panama Canal and ships in the Canal. Kourani allegedly conducted surveillance of potential targets in America, including military and law enforcement facilities in New York City. Thanks to the outstanding work of the FBI and NYPD, the allegedly destructive designs of these two Hezbollah operatives have been thwarted, and they will now face justice in a Manhattan federal court"

I have seen the name spelt differently in the news too. 'Koreani'. Is this just a facade for Trump to get certain presidents to back him up? To put fear in certain countries?
Trump and Varela (panama president) are scheduled to meet next week.

Fake? Real?
Bunch of covfefe?

What do you think?
