Eight militants were killed and many wounded on Monday when the Lebanese army targeted militant positions along the eastern border with Syria.

"The Lebanese army targeted militants on the border" with Syria, a security source said.

A separate security source said a "helicopter fired a missile at takfiri positions in Wadi Hmeid," on the eastern outskirts of the northeastern border town of Arsal.
He said eight militants were killed and "a large number" of others wounded, but he could not say if the dead were militants or civilians.

Earlier in the day, state-run National News Agency said four people were killed and ten others wounded as a blast ripped through Syrian refugee encampments near the amusement park in Wadi Hmeid.

Meanwhile, a military source was quoted as saying that the blast was the result of a Lebanese army strike against a vehicle for the armed groups.

Security sources denied the camps were hit.

The army frequently shells the militants' positions in the border area.
