Arsal resident killed in Yabroud battles

Arsal resident Mustafa Hmeid was killed in Syria’s Yabroud battles.

Mustafa is the son of Khaled Hmeid, who was killed during raids conducted by the Lebanese Army in Arsal and which led to the killing of Major Pierre Bachaalany.

LAF troops were ambushed in Arsal on Friday February 1st, 2013, while trying to detain fugitive, Khaled Hmeid, suspected of involvement in the 2011 kidnapping of seven Estonian tourists who were abducted in Lebanon's eastern Bekaa Valley and held for nearly four months before being released in July that year.

Khaled Hmeid was injured in the raid and subsequently succumbed to his wounds. Shortly after his capture around 80 gunmen adamant on avenging Hmeid's capture followed the LAF troops who reportedly were stuck on the road leading out of the town due to the accumulation of snow. The gunmen attacked the troops leaving Major Pierre Bachaalany and Adjutant Ibrahim Zahraman dead.
