(MNA) -- The agreement on the withdrawal of remaining Isis militants from Western Qalamoun to eastern region of Syria was reached between Hezbollah and Isis with an aim to prevent further bloodshed.

On August 19, the Lebanese army launched an operation to defeat Isis terrorists on its side of the border with Syria. At the same time, Hezbollah, along with Syrian army, has been conducting operations against Isis on the Syrian side of the border.

The operation resulted in significant advance of Lebanese and Syrian troops in the region and severe losses of Isis.

Last July, units of Syrian Arab Army, in cooperation with the Lebanese resistance, started operations against Isis gatherings in Western Qalamoun area, that have resulted in establishing full control over Juroud Flita and most of the main passages and axes and strategic heights and hills in the area after inflicting heavy losses upon Isis terrorists.
