Five Injured in Syrian Raid on Mountains Surrounding Arsal

W300

Five people were injured on Thursday when Syrian warplanes raided the mountains surrounding the northeastern border town of Arsal, the state-run National News Agency said.

The sounds of explosions were heard in areas far from the region, NNA said.

The injured were taken to a field hospital in Arsal, it added.

The Arsal area, which hosts tens of thousands of Syrian refugees, has been hit by repeated cross-border fire in recent months, some of it deadly.

Smuggling routes used by opposition forces to move fighters and weapons back and forth between Lebanon and Syria pass through the Arsal area.

Gebran Bassil, Traitor in Law, you were ORDERED by the president to take the necessary actions to put an end to this.

You failing to take action means you and Aoun have no respect for the "presidency" (irrespective of who the actual president is). You are a traitor and a collaborator with a foreign enemy state responsible for the massacre, murder of lebanese and the funding, arming of terrorist and organised crime organisations in Lebanon !

You will be dealt with like any traitor when Lebanon will recover the sovereignty M8 has sold back to Iran and Syria !

@FD : when Israel was bombing us in 06, we were actually hosting tens of families from the south offering them shelter, food, water and medicine. The only person hiding in caves is Hassan Nasrallah with his STONE AGE Hezbollah terrorist organisation.

We are the true resistance against Israel and the plague they have established in Lebanon called Hezbollah which provides an illusion of resistance when in fact they conduct organised crimes and actually protect Israel from 500000 palestinians !

The only traitors are your likes answering to the orders of Iran and Bashar's terrorist and criminal regime.

I'm fed up with your poor and cheap excuses !

We take no lessons of patriotism from traitors such as yourself !

FD : The sad truth about your Hezbollah and their UNdivine victory is that Israel Pulled out of Lebanon in 2000 and interrupted their war in 2006. Hezbollah never won ! Only in the illusion Hassan NAsrallah depicts in your tiny little brain !

FT : In or outside Arsal, bombing Lebanon is unacceptable whether it's Israel, Syria or any other country. If you don't accept this, then you are a traitor accepting to have your country raped in front of your eyes without taking action !

FT, with all respect I believe it is irrelevant that whether it is in Arsal or near Arsal. The SAA has bigger fish to fry inside Syria. No regular army from a sisterly arab country should ever be allowed to shell our country. This is an act of war on our sovereign nation. HA should not be allowed in Syria to fight in its war as well. HA should be sticking to Israel resistance wa bess. Period! FYI the people of Zahle are not going to Syria to protect religious shrines that are being desecrated.

@FD indiscriminate plane bombings ? When you Hezbollah cowards are hiding behind civilians using them as human shields ? Who's the coward really ?

If it was such a victory, why did Hassan apologize to the Lebanese people for his grave error ?

If it was such a victory, why is it that the Lebanese people payed with their prosperity, economic stability and growth, jobs, infrastructure for Hezbollah's mistake ?

It may be a victory in your tiny little senseless brain but the big losers are the Lebanese people who have to deal with Hezbollah until now. Hezbollah which is handicapping any prospects of economical growth, job creation, tourism and more.

Hezbollah and Syria has done infinitely more harm to Lebanon than Israel.

So take your arguments and leave them for your brainwashed peer-sheep who are gullible enough to believe in divine victories and bullshit fairytale stories coming out of the mouth of the blasphemous terrorist Hassan Nasrallah !

I couldn't be more "on target". In fact, the target is Hezbollah's weapons. It's the only obstacle to peace and prosperity.

Hezbollah in fact has no single plan for peace and prosperity. They thrive on war and war-profits and use said wars to indoctrinate their people when all they want is proper jobs, food, housing, education, culture, peace... something Hezbollah or religion will never bring them !
