Lebanese Army liberates two kidnapped Syrian children

The Lebanese army has said that troops have freed two Syrian children kidnapped by criminals along the Lebanon-Syria border last October.

The case had been followed closely in Lebanon where the kidnappers had demanded $350,000 in ransom and released videos showing the children being tortured.

Lebanon is home to nearly 1 million Syrian refugees who fled the war in the neighboring country.
