“I ordered the Lebanese army to respond to the sources of fire,” President Joseph Aoun said in clashes with the usual Syrian armed groups.
Aoun said, according to the local Syrian media, “What is happening in the borders of the east and northeast of the country cannot continue,” Aoun said, according to the local Syrian media.
He added that he asked the Lebanese Foreign Minister to contact a Syrian counterpart to resolve this crisis in line with the goal of ensuring the sovereignty of the two countries.
The local Lebanese media reported that two were killed and that many of them were injured in attacks by Takviri groups in the town of Sayyid Ali on the border with Syria.
