Syrian Troop Units Withdraw From Lebanon: Police

BEIRUT, Sept 23 (AFP) - Syrian military units withdrew from Lebanon into Syrian territory early Thursday, after leaving their positions south of Beirut, Lebanese police said.
A convoy of about 60 buses transporting Syrian soldiers as well as trucks carrying their belongings crossed the Masnaa border post at 5:00 am (0200 GMT), police said.
They did not specify how many Syrian soldiers had actually returned to Syria.
There were no tanks and just one large piece of artillery equipment in this first withdrawal from Lebanon, officials said.
