Four armed men, allegedly members of the new Syrian security forces, reportedly attempted to enter Lebanese territory this afternoon near the border town of al-Qasr (Baalbeck-Hermel district), according to our correspondent in the region, Sarah Abdallah.
They were repelled by a group of Lebanese clan fighters during clashes that left two dead and two wounded on the Lebanese side. The injured were transported to regional hospitals by the Lebanese Red Cross.
Meanwhile, the National News Agency (NNA, official) reported that the Lebanese Red Cross discovered three bodies near the “earthen embankment” of the village of al-Qasr, close to Hermel Public Hospital, and that Lebanese General Security has launched an investigation into the incident.
