Opposition forces in Syria on Sunday accused the Lebanese group Hezbollah of “military intervention” that threatened “regional peace and security.”
According to a statement released by the Syria National Council (SNC) and quoted by AFP, Hezbollah militants on Saturday attacked three villages in Homs province, near the Lebanese border, causing “civilian casualties and the exodus of hundreds of people.”
“In the past two days, 12 Syrian rebels were killed and 30 wounded, while three Hezbollah members were killed and 14 others were wounded in battles,” a Lebanese security source told The Daily Star.
The involvement of the militant group “stoked sectarian tensions” in the area, the SNC statement said.
