“Hezbollah has finally done it and we were not surprised by this because this is Hezbollah’sreality,” Arsal locals said in a statement issued on Friday.
They continued: “We are against killing civilians, we are against the acts of the Syrian regime and we are against Hezbollah and their methods of killing innocent civilians.”
The residents of the Beqaa town vowed that they will defend their “blood, dignity, children and families.”
