A Syrian national was killed and 14 others were wounded in the town of Ber Elias in the Bekaa on Thursday after a quarrel erupted over the abduction of a girl for marriage.

According to the National News Agency, the spat prompted assailants to toss two hand grenades at the residence of Qassem Issam al-Ayyoubi, the father of the kidnapper.

The girl's uncle F. A. kidnapped the father of the abductor in retaliation, threatening to kill him if his niece wasn't released.

Fifteen Syrians were wounded and admitted to hospitals of the region in the incident.

One of the injured men, who sustained severe injuries, soon passed away.

people may be lying to themselves, everything we witness everyday is something that can be labelled as civil war.

abductions, stabbing in bus, firefight of religious clans against one another, hatred-accusations-insults openly on tv channels....

Death penalty to all that use weapons, that's how it should be.
