| [AnNahar] The Lebanese army has thwarted an attempt by gunnies to infiltrate Lebanese territories in the eastern Bekaa Valley, leaving two faceless myrmidons dead, the military and state-run National News Agency said on Monday. Two faceless myrmidons were killed and five injured in the areas of al-Misyada and Wadi Hmeid in an ambush on the outskirts of the northeastern border town of Arsal, they said. The army transported the two bodies to Hermel's state hospital. NNA identified the gunnies as Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group faceless myrmidons Mohammed Kanj and Ali Mtaweh. Later, the military shelled the positions of gunnies on the outskirts of Arsal and Ras Baalbek. In the afternoon, the army shelled a group of IS faceless myrmidons who tried to infiltrate from Syria into the outskirts of the al-Naamat area in Lebanese territory, NNA said. "The Lebanese army's artillery bombardment thwarted their infiltration attempt and forced them to retreat," the agency added. The faceless myrmidons from al-Nusra ...formally Jabhat an-Nusrah li-Ahli sh-Sham (Support Front for the People of the Levant), also known as al-Qaeda in the Levant. They aim to establish a pan-Arab caliphate. Not the same one as the Islamic State, though .. ... Front and the IS are taking the porous Lebanese-Syrian border as a hiding place. Their threat rose in August last year when they overran Arsal and took with them hostages from the military and police following deadly festivities. They have since executed four of them. The army regularly festivities with the faceless myrmidons and thwarts their attempts to infiltrate Arsal. |
