Syrian army repelled an “al-Nusra” attack on the Lebanese border
Syrian government troops, together with the militants of the Hezbollah movement, repulsed the attack of the Dzhebhat al-Nusra group (banned in the Russian Federation) in the mountainous region of Kalamoun on the Lebanese border, reports RIA News.
According to him, even on the approaches to the positions several terrorists, including one of the field commanders, were destroyed. “After that, the remaining terrorists fled and hid in the mountain gorges,” said the source.
According to the agency, the area of Kalamun was cleaned of terrorists several years ago and is currently under the control of the government army. Militants periodically attack military positions to regain control of a part of the mountainous region bordering Lebanon in order to smuggle weapons and transfer recruits recruited in Lebanon for the war in Syria.
