The militant group Jund al-Sham recruited teenagers to help it monitor several structures in an attempt to carry out terrorist acts, al-Akhbar newspaper reported on Wednesday.
According to the newspaper, the army intelligence detained recently a 12-year-old boy identified by his initials H. A. after suspecting his movement near a Hizbullah mosque in the Taamir Ain el-Hilweh area in southern Lebanon.
A security source said that the boy testified that a prominent leader in Jund al-Sham, who is present in al-Taware' neighborhood in Ain el-Hilweh, tasked him with monitoring the mosque in order to plant an explosive in its premises later on.
The daily also reported that two teenage brothers were arrested two weeks ago over the same charges.
The two brothers said that Jund al-Sham tasked them with monitoring a building to plant a bomb near it.
Earlier in December, a member of al-Saadi family opened fire at Ali Abul Kamal, a member of the Jund al-Sham group, in Ain el-Hilweh refugee camp.
In another incident, a member of Jund al-Sham had shot and killed a member of Fatah.
An armed clash had also taken place recently between members of Fatah and Jund al-Sham in the camp.

Oh, sure, this report sounds very credible: A "senior official" in Jund al Sham in person told a 12-year-old boy to monitor a Hizi2 b'Allah mosque and told him it's because they want to plant bombs on it. If the Jund al Sham were really so stupid, why didn't they just ask the Hizis themselves, farid marra.
