evidence: Aarsal.. cold town for Syrian refugees living in northern Lebanon [...] Unfortunately, the cold is not the only problem that the Syrians living in Aarsal, which is adjacent to the borders of their country, suffer from. It is instead part of enormous ongoing suffering for seven years, during which they have been subjected to security prosecution, arrest, and prevention from work and construction, and their children have been struggling to get a proper education. [...] The security grip on Syrians in Aarsal has loosened during the previous two years, compared to the period that followed the arrival of the "Free Syrian Army," the "Jabhat al-Nusra" (Al-Nusra front) and ISIS, from their areas of control in the Qalamoun and Jarud, near the Syrian-Lebanese border, to Aarsal.
