ISF Continues Seizing Stolen Vehicles in Arsal

Security forces on Thursday seized a stolen vehicle during its ongoing raids in the northeastern town of Arsal.

"The Arsal gendarmery has seized a gray Mercedes car in the Wadi Hmayyed region in the town,” the Internal Security Forces announced in a statement.

"We have launched an investigation in this issue,” the statement added.

On Monday evening, the army Airborne Brigade seized a booby-trapped car in Wadi Hmayyed.

It also clashed with Syrian gunmen in the region, before succeeding in arresting them.

These raids come few days after a suicide bomber blew himself up at an army checkpoint in Arsal, killing three troops and wounding several others.

The forces have seized so far more than 15 stolen vehicles in different region in Arsal.
