SYRIA-FLEITA-MILITANT-EVACUATION

Convoy transporting rebels enter the Syrian barren region of Fleita in western Syria near Lebanon on Aug. 2, 2017. The first buses transporting militants with the al-Qaida-linked Nusra Front and civilians crossed into the Syrian side of the Syrian-Lebanese borders as part of evacuation deal between the militants and Hezbollah. Around 113 buses carrying 7,777 people, including Syrian rebels, their families and Syrian refugees sympathizing with the militants, started entering the Syrian barren region of Fleita in the evening, after evacuating the Juroud Arsal barrens on the Lebanese side of the borders.
