Hezbollah Executes 1st Military Phase against ISIS in Qalamoun

Alwaght – The Lebanese Hezbollah started its first phase of military operations against the ISIS Takfiri terrorists in Al-Qalamoun after purging the mountainous region along the Syria-Lebanon border from Al-Nusra Front terrorists.

The Hezbollah operations covers areas from al-Qasir region to the hilltops of al-Aqua, Ras Ba'albak and al-Jreijeer in Al-Qalamoun.

Hezbollah fighters are using new tactics in their operations against the ISIS in Al-Qalamoun, including use of reconnaissance and missile-launching drones.

Hezbollah's drones are being utilized to find the precise location of ISIS hideouts in the region and then target them.

Last Tuesday, Hezbollah alongside the Syrian Army stormed the positions of al-Nusra terrorists in the nearby areas of Jreijeer and took control over this strategic spot.

Some military sources said that the terrorists' concentration center in Jreijeer was their last stronghold in al-Qalamoun.

Earlier this month, Hezbollah Deputy Leader Sheikh Naeem Qassem underlined that the Lebanese resistance movement will continue fighting against the Takfiri terrorists in Arsal border region.

"We will continue our battle in Arsal hilltops until uprooting the last terrorist in that region, but (protecting) the security of the city of Arsal is the duty of the Lebanese government that needs to be fulfilled," said Sheikh Qassem.

The Lebanese deputy chief, meantime, pointed to the regional crises created by the West, and said, "The western countries are good at creating crises, but they are unsuccessful when it comes to ending them."
