Large numbers of militants were killed and injured during the operation, the sources added, noting that these heights are of much significance since they overlook three valleys in Arsal barrens: Uwaiss Valley, Atneen Valley and AL-Khayl Valley.

Nusra Front militants fled towards Syrian refugees’ camps and the city park in Arsal, according to the sources.

The resistance fighters have been for weeks engaged in a wide-scale operation to secure the barrens of Qalamoun and Arsal. This area lies on the border between Syria and Lebanon and is considered as stronghold for the Syria-based Takfiri militants.
