Report: New Members Join IS from Lebanon
A group of young men from the Palestinian refugee camp of Ain el-Hilweh have joined the ranks of the extremist Islamic State group, raising the number of new members from Lebanon to 14, al-Akhbar daily reported on Friday.
A source close to the IS confirmed to the daily that the group has called these youth to follow security training sessions in order to task them afterward with missions inside Lebanon.
“The militant group does not suffer scarcity in fighters to attract members from here and there,” it said, and added that the IS has only called them up to join security courses in preparation for future missions inside Lebanon.
“These members shall return back to the camp when they are requested to,” the source pointed out.
Lebanon's security forces have arrested over the past few months numerous terrorists who are affiliated with the extremist groups involved in the fighting in Syria.
