The Nusra Front Executes Ali al-Bazzal

The Nusra Front declared in a statement posted Friday on its Twitter page the execution of Lebanese captive troop Ali al-Bazzal.

"The Lebanese Army has moved forward with its dirty and sleazy acts and it has, in the footsteps of Hezbollat (Hezbollah), arrested women and children," the statement read.

The terrorist group added that the execution of Ali al-Bazzal is the least that it could do to retaliate against the Army's actions, threatening to kill another soldier if the women detained by the Lebanese government are not released.
