Diary of August 3 2006: A Failed Airdrop in Baalbek’s Vicinity

A Golani Brigade Force carried out an airdrop in the vicinity of Baalbek city. The Mujahideen of the Islamic Resistance confronted the force inflicting their ranks with a number of casualties.

The enemy claimed to have captured three members of the Islamic Resistance, revealing it was attempting to score battle field points. Its attempts were in vain as those arrested were all civilians who did not belong to the Resistance. The enemy was forced to release them a few days later.
