Minister Abou Faour reiterates commitment to solve case of ISIS held servicemen
Minister of Health Wael Abou Faour reiterated on Monday his commitment to solve the case of the ISIS-held servicemen.
 
He also noted that search is ongoing to find “regional and local channels that are able to help in solving the issue.”
 
Abou Faour’s comments were made after meeting the families of the kidnapped servicemen in his office in the ministry’s headquarters.
 
“The crisis cell will draw a road map in order to deal with this case,” he concluded by saying.
 
Al Qaeda's Syrian wing freed 16 Lebanese soldiers and policemen last week  in exchange for the release of jailed Islamists including the ex-wife of Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
 
The Nusra Front seized the Lebanese 16 months ago during an attack on the Lebanese border town of Arsal, mounted together with the Islamic State jihadist group which is still believed to be holding nine soldiers captured in the incursion.
