Hizbullah will bury in Lebanon 38 of its fighters, who were killed on Syrian territory, a local daily reported quoting the joint military command of the Free Syrian army.

"Most of them were killed in the Reef of Homs while four fighters were killed in Damascus," media head of the Free Syrian Army Fahed al-Masri pointed out.

"The corpses were transferred secretly to Lebanon and arrangements for the burial were made after buying the silence of the deceased's relatives," the newspaper reported.

It was hard to identify some corpses as a result of severe burns and injures, it added.

Sources close to Hizbullah have said only that all of them were killed "while carrying out their jihadist duty."

Moreover, two Hizbullah snipers were killed in clashes in Reef Homs, according to Syrian activists.
