holy warriors went through the landmines planted by Hezbollah and shortly afterwards were bombarded by Hezbollah mortars. Several others were also maimed during the incident.

According to reports, the gunnies were attempting to launch an ambush attack on Hezbollah positions in Maaraboun city, in eastern Leb, when they passed through the minefield. The sounds of the kabooms alerted the nearby Hezbollah fighters and prompted them to shell the terrorists.

Hezbollah and Syrian army began purging terrorists, both ISIL and al-Nusra Front bully boys, from Qalamoun early on May.
