Report: 6 Hizbullah Members Killed as Nusra Hits Qalamun Supply Vehicles

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Six Hizbullah members have been reportedly killed in an ambush by the Qaida-linked al-Nusra Front in Syria's Qalamun region near the border with Lebanon.

The pan-Arab Al-Jazeera television said Wednesday the six men were killed when al-Nusra targeted Hizbullah “supply vehicles” in Qalamun.

Meanwhile, the UAE-based Orient News TV, which opposes the Assad regime, said al-Nusra carried out a “major operation” against a Hizbullah “supply convoy” in the Syrian region.

“Activists reported a huge explosion against a Hizbullah supply convoy in Qalamun and the loud blast was heard across the region,” the TV network said.

In early January, five Hizbullah members and six Nusra militants were reportedly killed when the al-Qaida-affiliated group attacked posts controlled by the Lebanese party and the Syrian army in the Qalamun town of Flita.

Al-Nusra announced on Twitter at the time that its fighters had planted landmines near posts controlled by Hizbullah and the Lebanese army in the border region.

Flita is just across the Lebanese border from Arsal and is a crossing point which rebels and refugees have used regularly.

Hizbullah has sent fighters across the border to aid Syrian regime troops in Qalamun and in several regions across Syria.

Its involvement helped the Syrian army recapture most of Qalamun from rebel hands.

The Lebanese army for its part has been battling Syria-based militants from al-Nusra and the Islamic State group who are entrenched on the porous border between Lebanon and Syria.

In August, jihadists from the two groups overran the Lebanese border town of Arsal and engaged in deadly fighting with the army. Around 20 troops were killed while at least 35 soldiers and policemen were taken hostage by the retreating militants.

Usually there is a mid week lull in intake of martyrs. This week I am keeping the fires stoked.

I tell them the same. At the end of the day, these are people sent there by cynical old men and who think they are doing the right thing.

nusra boys film e3verything they do, even when they eat they film themselves yelling allahuakbar as they chew away at the infidel meat.

If this "report" by "activists" was true there would be 100 videos about it.

did hizbullah appoint you as their defense lawyer, mowaten?

You beat me to it _mowaten_. I was about to say the same thing, the same thing exactly. We are so similar in how we think, how we analyze events, and how we are paid to post. I hope people don't think we are the same poster.

"delusionary report" sure, just like the report of the 15 year old hezbollah terrorist who was buried yesterday after performing his jihadi duty killing civilians in syria.

Missing peace 29 April 2015, 20:10

"maybe Iran and Russia would do us a favor."
what about hezbollah doing a favor to the country by placing itself Under the ORDERS of the lebanese army? no need for russians or any other ones!
what about hezbollah obeying the state of Lebanon?
what about hezbollah stop deciding for peace or war instead of the lebanese gvt?
what about hezbollah reinforcing the army by submitting their weapons and expertise to it?
what about hezbollah stopping to undermine the lebanese institutions by doing whatever pleases them?

but antilebanese people will never accept that the army to be the only armed force defending the country but a militia paid by a foreign country to which they pledged allegiance!

Definitely not the first time that the Orient Salafi News TV, reported some fantasy story like this.

Thumb Mystic 29 April 2015, 22:51

Orient news also claimed several times, that Bashar Al Assad was dead.

Ofcourse you believe all that texas. No other news media reported this, I wonder why.

that makes my day ..crazy are those still supporting Dead man walking assad.
Alawites could have ditch the butcher from the beginning and negotiate their place in the new Syria in a strength position...instead they are going to lose everything.

and hizb would better come back and integrate in the Lebanese community otherwise the Shiaa will bear all the arab world hatred

Thumb Mystic 30 April 2015, 12:13

With or without Assad, the takfiris plan from day one was to eradicate all Alawites from the Middle east. All this was planned and began 2011, don't use Assad as an excuse.

I see that Hizthrowup had a funeral for one of their fighters. A 15yo boy. A fifteen year old boy died for this terrorist organization. A child was sent to do battle or guard something in Syria. How is this a "resistance"? This boy will never be a father, be a teacher or fireman, see a free Lebanon away from the murderous Iran and its' proxy terrorist group. May peace be with Lebanon and Israel.

WHy do we have Lebanese loyal to Iran?
WHy do we have Lebanese loyal to Assad?
WHy do we have Lebanese loyal to KSA or any Gulf country?
Why do we have Lebanese getting killed on foreign soil for foreign ideologies?
Why can't we be one people whose sole loyalty is to Lebanon?
We are wasting our opportunities to be the best and richest nation in the Middle East.

Thumb geha 30 April 2015, 05:57

@southern
when you belong and follow this extremist terrorist iranian militia then you are iaranian and not Lebanese.
you have nothing to do with Lebanon. actually you are harming Lebanon and its people by existing on Lebanese soil.

@Helicopter
Your above comment is excellent. I have been wondering myself why the Lebanese don't unite for the sake of Lebanon. We can be again the pearl of the world
Too bad!!

Thanks for sharing, we all can disagree on details regarding how to be a good Lebanese, but no one should disagree with the core issues such as placing loyalty to Lebanon above all other loyalties be it Sectarian or foreign..
