Photoblog by Radwan Mortada Last month Al-Akhbar visited the Qalamoun mountains, the Syrian region that runs along Lebanon’s eastern border, touring villages, towns, and even caves there, where opposition and al-Qaeda-affiliated militants are holed up in preparation for the coming battles. The road to the Qalamoun Mountains in Syria passes obligatorily through Ersal. This town in the Lebanese Bekaa Valley, whose name means “Throne of God” in Aramaic, has become one of the major arenas of the battles raging in Syria.
