Syrian warplanes attack ISIS near Lebanon border
BEIRUT -- Syrian warplanes have bombarded mountainous areas controlled by the Islamic State group near the border with Lebanon.
The extremists control a stretch of land on both side of the border and a major military operation is expected soon to remove them.
The shelling on the Syrian side came as a Lebanese military official said Wednesday that Lebanese troops attacked IS positions on the other side of the border, tightening the siege on them.
