Billboards Vandalized by Nusra Front Slogans in Bekaa

Unknown assailants vandalized on Friday two billboards with writings in support of Syria's rebel al-Nusra Front, reported the National News Agency.

The vandals wrote the term “al-Nusra Front” on two billboards on the Iaat-Deir al-Ahmar road in the Bekaa.

They also wrote “the al-Nusra Front is coming” on a wall at a square in the town of Shlifa.

On June 10, a bomb was found in the Hay al-Sellom area in Beirut's southern suburbs allegedly signed by the al-Nusra Front and directed against Hizbullah.

Later in April, social media websites circulated a photograph of an SUV brandishing the flag of the rebel group.

The vehicle was photographed as it was passing through the northern Lebanese region of Zgharta.

Syrian authorities have repeatedly warned that al-Nusra Front members could be heading to Lebanon.

The army had arrested a number of individuals who belong to the group.
