Three Syrian refugees were killed Wednesday by Hezbollah artillery shelling over a camp on the outskirts of the Lebanese border town of Arsal, according to a Syrian activist from inside the town. "Dozens of rocket shells fell in the vicinity of Wadi Hamid camp, located on the outskirts of Arsal, killing three of the Syrian refugees,” the source, speaking on the condition of anonymity, told Anadolu Agency.
"This is not the first time the camp came under shelling by Hezbollah on the pretext that they target elements belong to Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham group claiming they are hidden inside the camp," he added. The Syrian activist refuted the presence of gunmen inside the camp, which, according to him, “contains 1,400 refugees".
