Hezbollah reportedly took seven Nusra Front fighters as hostages, according to the report .

The Wednesday fighting took place along the outskirts of the northeastern town of Arsal and the Bekaa Valley town of Al-Fakiha, according to the report.

Hezbollah and the Syrian rebel group have been fighting for days along the Syrian border.

Hezbollah reshuffles its press officers

In another development Hezbollah has reshuffled its press officers, appointing Mohammad Afif as Hezbollah chief’s new media adviser.

A report published Thursday by pro- Hezbollah newspaper Al-Akhbar said the decision was made by the party’s Shura Council.

It said Afif had held the same position in the past before taking over the management of Al-Manar TV.

Former Hezbollah media relations officer Ibrahim Musawi has been appointed Al-Manar’s deputy director, the report said.

    “Carlos Ghosn, the French-Lebanese- Brazilian chief of Nissan-Renault, on Thursday shrugged off any chance of vying for the Middle Eastern nation’s presidency, saying he has “too many jobs already.”….”

      You can directly say he’s smart for refusing to even be considered.
      Ghosn runs one of the biggest companies in the world
      Why would he get involved in running the shittiest country in the world?

          And you think those wolves in the government would let him build anything or donate money without pocketing most of it. therefore we still end up with 6 hours a day of electricity. I remember Kuwait gave Lebanon almost 25 years go 300 Million to build a plant. then nothing was done.. where did that money go..

    I think its a shame that the defense of Lebanon is not in the hands of Lebanese army but in the hands of Iranian proxy’s.
