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."
