Syria: a thousand Hezbollah fighters to protect the regime and punishing events
Friday, February 4, 2011 - 8:53

The Kuwaiti daily Al Seyassah "understands that a thousand elite fighters of Hezbollah have already been sent to Syria in recent days to defend the regime of Bashar al-Assad. Some 4,000 other fighters are ready to intervene in less than eight hours, if the events planned today and tomorrow in major Syrian cities were expanding.

The use of Hezbollah, which had already lent a hand to the Iranian regime to quell demonstrations in 2009, certifies that the Syrian president does not trust his army (with the exception of units consisting only of Alawi) and fears that it does not execute his orders to fire on demonstrations.

The Kuwaiti daily said that Hezbollah fighters were the uniform of the Syrian Presidential Guard and are based in the training camps of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards. They must be deployed around strategic locations and departments to Damascus, to repel any hostile demonstration in the plan.
