Lebanon's caretaker prime minister is to visit Damascus "soon", the information minister said on Tuesday -- the first such visit since opposition factions seized power in Syria last month.
"There will be a visit to Syria soon, headed by Prime Minister (Najib) Mikati," Ziad Makary told reporters after a cabinet meeting.
Last week, Mikati's office said he had a phone call with Syria's de facto leader Ahmed al-Sharaa, who invited him to Damascus.
