Al-Mustaqbal newspaper stated on Sunday that the dossier of Lebanese abducted soldiers gained great momentum after a new Qatari mediator started talks with the kidnappers to secure the release of soldiers.
The newspaper added that Lebanese mediator Ahmad Fliti reported to families of the soldiers that talks with Al-Nusra Front are easy and serious; however, noted that negotiations with the Islamic State are complicated due to conflicts within the organization.
