ISIL terrorists threaten Lebanon’s territory

The ISIL terrorist group continues to wreak havoc across the region as it expands its acts of violence into Lebanese territory.

The ISIL Takfiri terrorists have recently clashed with Lebanese forces in the Lebanese border town of Arsal.

Violence erupted in eastern Lebanon after Lebanese soldiers arrested a man alleged to be Syrian who the army said confessed to belonging to the ISIL.

Angered by the arrest, the Takfiri militants opened fire on Lebanese army checkpoints and stormed a police station in a border area.

The Takfiri militants apparently infiltrated into Lebanon from Syria’s mountainous region of Qalamoun.

Lebanese Prime Minister Tammam Salam has said that there would be “no leniency towards the terrorist killers and no appeasement for those who violate Lebanon’s territory and harm its people.”
