SANA: Armed Terrorist Group Thwarted from Infiltrating Syria from Lebanon

Syrian authorities on Saturday succeeded in thwarting an armed terrorist group from infiltrating Syria from Lebanon, reported Syrian Arab News Agency, SANA on Sunday.

They said that the armed group was attempting to enter the Syrian region of Tall Kalakh and that all of its members have been killed, said SANA.

In addition, Syrian authorities also thwarted a similar infiltration on Friday night whereby armed terrorist groups were trying to enter Reef Homs from Lebanon.

A source from the region said that a clash erupted between concerned authorities in Syria and the armed group as they were trying to enter Homs.

“They killed six of the terrorists and wounded four in Reef Qusayr while the rest managed to make it back to Lebanon,” stated the source.

It added that the concerned authorities thwarted infiltrations from Lebanon into Syria in the areas of Halat and al-Arida.

“Clashes ensued between them and some terrorists fled back to Lebanon where ambulances helped transport the wounded into Lebanese territory,” they continued.
