8 Hizbullah Fighters Killed During Clashes in Outskirts of Brital, Attack Was on 10 of Its Positions
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Hizbullah repulsed on Sunday an attack by al-Nusra Front on ten of its positions and they didn't lose any of their positions, but Ain Saat for more than an hour.
Hizbullah managed to thwart the attack on its other positions. Eight of its fighters were killed, while al-Nusra Front stated that it attacked a position and killed eleven fighters of Hizbullah.
Al-Nusra Front posted a video Monday afternoon showing pictures of its fighters storming positions for Hizbullah while naming it "The battle of revenge for our refugee brothers whose tents were burned in Arsal.”
Al-Nusra was referring to the burning of the refugee camps in Arsal two weeks ago during raids by the army to arrest suspects.
The army assured it opened fire on the suspects for setting the tents in the camp on fire, while al-Nusra insists it was the army who put the fire on.
The video begins with pictures of gunmen in cars in the outskirts then gunmen walking to “Iran's party,” as they said.
The video continued to show militants fighting and screaming “Allahu Akbar.” Then the it ends with pictures of Brital and saying that “the fighters are in the outskirts.”
LBCI stated on Monday afternoon that: “What had happened is a comprehensive attack on 10 Hizbullah positions in the outskirts from Ain Saat to Younine that lasted for almost five hours.”
“The clashes were on two axes the first in Brital – Hamme and the second in Younine – Nahle," it added.
LBCI quoted a Hizbullah source as saying: “The attack did not succeed and its positions along the roads are under its control.”
“Various types of weapons were used in the process, during which Hizbullah fired artillery on all of the gunmen's positions,” it added. LBCI revealed that the hills where they clashed had rugged areas.
The battle was very violent and the reinforcements from Brital to Hamme took more than an hour to recover Ain Saat position.
“The snipers from al-Nusra Front are strongly active from hill to hill and any moving target is in danger,” LBCI quoted Hizbullah fighters at the Ain Saat position as saying.
Al-Nusra Front did not report anything until Monday morning.
It wrote on its Twitter: "Your brothers and fighters Aassal al-Ward attacked a position for Hiz Alat al-Irani (Hizbullah) in the outskirts of Brital and killed more than 11 of them and seized weapons.”
It also published pictures of dead men covered with blood and claimed they were Hizbullah fighters.
Sources close to Hizbullah stated: "Martyrs have ascended while doing their sacred line of duty in the outskirts of Brital.”
“The martyrs are: Hamza Aaqsa, Mohammed Abdo Rabah, Mohammed Qassem al-Qalamuni, Fouad Murtada, Maher Zoaiter, Ahmed Hussein Saleh, Nizar Tarraf, and Ammar Assaf,” it added.
According to al-Manar television, Hizbullah killed dozens of militants and wounded others in Ain al-Saat and was able to take them out of the eastern mountain range.
A suicide car bomber killed on 20 September three people at a checkpoint manned by Hizbullah in the district of Baalbek that lies in eastern Lebanon, the state-run National News Agency reported.
During the last few months several confrontations took place in the outskirts of Brital-Baalbek between Hizbullah and groups of gunmen from Syria. Hizbullah exists in several military points in the outskirts of the border that are hard to reach.

it looks like Nusra in the video had all the time in the world to even take a nap, wake up, collect HA abandoned weapons, and leave.

come on terrorist.... we might not agree with HA. they might have strayed and brought havoc to Lebanon. But we cannot be happy for their deaths.

bless anyone person, entity, brigade, organization or country that inflicts pain, suffering, death, and destruction upon the sectarian terrorist iranian militia and its supporters wherever they maybe.

The answer to your question is a simple No. The Islamic Republic of Iran only entrusts the resistance to safeguard the lebanese borders and nobody else. Lebanon is an extension of the the Islamic Republic and its security is a matter of national security for Iran.

gabby. Don't agree. We should never rejoice for the death of people we dont agree with.

Lebanon first
Again I fully agree with you and I think those criticizing or wishing more dead are so narrow minded and cannot see the situation clearly. Time will show but in the mean time may these brave Lebanese who died repulsing Is and Nusra's attacks, rest in peace and my sincere condolences to their families and friends

mr. coolmec watch the following link of the burial ceremony of hezbollah terrorists and listen to what they chant, see what pictures they are raising, see if you can find a lebanese flag then come back and tell me they are lebanese and they are defending us.

Geagea's media Naharnet, continues to hide the death toll of the takfiris.
06 October 2014, 19:19
88
Indeed, if Naharnet is too corrupt to give the number, then I will.
Atleast 74 Takfiris got massacred overnight. Most of them were Nusra though
06 October 2014, 19:21

and you sectarians call the terrorists who blew up the U.S Marines compound "Mujahideen".
06 October 2014, 19:23
87
We call them heroes, because the target was not full of Civilians, but full of CIA agents. Try harder texi
06 October 2014, 19:26

An invading army such as US military, are and will always be legitimate targets. Aslong as civilians are not targeted, you forgot to mention the TWA Flight 847 incident, there was around 140 passengars onboard, and all of the civilians were freed, only 1 American Navy Seal soldier got executed.
06 October 2014, 19:46
68
Hizbullah is also an invading 'army' (invading Syria). I agree with you Mystic, that makes them a legitimate target.
06 October 2014, 19:52
75
You forget, that the Iranian embassy attack wasen't successful, it hit civilians walking outside instead.
If you read about the American embassy incident, you will find out that i am right about them being CIA.
If Hezb really wanted to kill random civilians, they could've done it already.
But no, they are not like your beloved takfiris, it is against their faith to kill innocents.
06 October 2014, 19:54

They were invited in, by the Syrian government & it's people. So i do not see your point?
07 October 2014, 04:18

Naharnet said several dozens (your number is 7 dozens + 4).
The more the merrier on both sides, as long as they leave the LAF and the true Lebanese alone.

HA were invited by the syrian government and its people you say? lol. What government and what people. You mean the people, the same people that HA is now killing in Syria.. so your hezb respects the wishes of the syrian people and accepts their invitation but it does not accept the will of the lebanese people by seeking their approval before venturing into syria? Great logic indeed. And who is HA to accept invitations to go fight in other countries? Is it an independent State from the Lebanese state? What if HA gets invited tomorrow to go fight in Colombia, will it also go? Pathetic bunch of sectarians

As long as these extremists are exterminating each other, then they are doing us a favor: today is a good day as we got rid from both of those terrorists.

sadly this reminds me of the self made videos of when the islamic resistance in south lebanon used to attack the positions of the sla in the1990s, same jihadi slogans same ideology similar results
06 October 2014, 20:07
32
I hope that Ibrahim Al Amine and Talal Salman don't level the same rabid criticism of unpreparedness and incompetence on the leaders of the hezb that they leveled on the lebanese army comand after the battle of Arsal.

veritas1, your so called facts doesn't add up. The Argentian President, stood up a few days ago, and said to world that the Lebanese Resistance, wasen't part in the Argentina plot, and actually America was behind the terrorism https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyShGogzIn4 her own words.

Mystic, you lied. nowhere in that speech does the president of argentine say what you claimed she said.

in the video you can see the nusra gunmen voluntarily leaving after packing the weapons they gained from hezbollah including american made tow missiles.

anyone who Condon the filth terrorists acts is a terrorist himself
anyone that is happy that the integrity of our land is attacked is a traitor

I did not even hear them say the word LEBANON in this video! It was all about some weird religious vengeance. It might as well have been a funeral in iran.
06 October 2014, 21:53

your argument is you have no argument. You simply are sneaking in your hidden agenda by first claiming you don't support hizballah and then wants us to thank this terror party for bringing nusra and isil to lebanon.
06 October 2014, 22:07

lubnani.masi7i Did you see me thank Hizbullah? Claiming I don't support them! Look I'm not even gonna bother answer you because you've already made your mind up. The problem with people like you is that you have a need and an urge to label others as this or that. I don't even live in Lebanon and do you know why? Because I can't live among narrow minded people like you who hold on to their sects above anything else and are brainwashed by all these shitty politicians and "political parties" we have.
06 October 2014, 22:25

lubnani.masihi; this so called "loubnani" used to post under screen name "endless". A HA supporter who pretends he is neutral and cares about lebanon. Don't bother he is full of himself and labels everybody but refuses to be labeled.
06 October 2014, 22:33
71
eagledawn, who is endless and why would I do that?
I pretend to be neutral? Whatever man. I don't really think I need to reply to your ridiculous comment. I have never labeled anyone including you so I'm not sure why you would come up with such an accusation.
06 October 2014, 21:36

First of all do not ever call them my hezbos again. Honestly don't. They are not my hezbos nor do I share anything with their ideology. The Lebanese army is all I believe in but it is being degraded by our political elite. I hope they get the support that they need and I have all my faith in them and no one else.
You make it sound like I believe any propaganda. Please spare me your elitist and patronising remark. I do not make assumptions about you so don't make any about me.
I am concerned about the situation in Lebanon because of this crazy sectarian feud between Sunnis and Shias that will ultimately destroy us from within. If you're not concerned then good for you.

As for you terrorist you're not worth it

anonymetexasusa thank you I really appreciate it and apology accepted.
Many things bother me about what's happening in Lebanon but what worries me the most is that I see no solution to the problem that would spare the country a war. How can you reconcile all the differences and dissolve the hatred that exists between the various communities. We are split and the last time we were the country was ravaged by war for 20 years.
Mustaqbal are the only major moderate Sunni party but like all parties in Lebanon they are not perfect and have just like the rest of them made some mistakes. They should be strengthened against the extremist ideologies that are sprouting across the country.
I hope to God we get spared more heartache and death.

"HA anticipated the actions of these terrorists and that's why they went into Syria."
go sell your merchandise on manar. Also, HA anticipated Israel's reaction in 2006. "Had I known" you're such a retard I would have not replied to your comment.
06 October 2014, 22:50
51
anonymetexasusa If that happens and Hizbullah gives all its weapons to the LAF that would be an ideal and amazing scenario. I honestly wish that would happen but I'm not sure it will. We can always hope though.
06 October 2014, 22:52

when HA went to Syria ISIL did not even exist. Did HA also anticipate that ISIL will be formed.... lol just lol. Any excuse and monday morning quarterbacking to justify your terrorist organization's actions.

These battles are not between warring nations, they are between groups of Islamic extremists. Neither side is fighting for countries, but for sectarian agendas and extremist ideologies. Where is the army? Aren't these lands Lebanese territory? The army should deploy along the borders, along with UNIFIL or some other international force, and stop fighters from entering or leaving Lebanon. What's going on is a disgrace.
