| 2015-06-10 |
| [Ynet] Hezbollah gunmen repelled an attack Tuesday by Islamic State extremists in an area along the Lebanon-Syria border as a major battle between the two groups looms in the rugged mountainous region, Hezbollah's TV station reported. Reporting the smaller victories and ignoring the (overwhelmingly) larger defeat... According to Al-Manar TV, ISIS targeted several Hezbollah positions outside the northeastern Lebanese border village of Ras Baalbek. The ensuing battle left at least five ISIS fighters dead or wounded, including the group's leader in the Qalamoun border region identified as Saudi national Walid Abdel Mohsen al-Omari, the channel said. It did not say whether there were casualties among Hezbollah fighters. Al-Manar said Hezbollah also captured 14 ISIS bodies the militants were unable to retrieve. |
