A bomb sniffing dog found two AGM-114 hellfire missiles on a passenger flight bound to Serbia from Lebanon.

The Lebanese army said that the missiles were being sent to the American company that produced them. The missiles were meant for training purpose and did not contain any explosives. The return was in accordance “with administrative and legal measures after the training ended,” AFP quoted the army as saying Tuesday.

Serbian N1 TV reported that the said package with two guided missiles was discovered on Saturday by a sniffer dog after the flight landed at Belgrade airport.

Serbian media said documents listed the final destination for the AGM-114 Hellfire missiles as Portland, Oregon.
