Al-Qaeda's Syria franchise Friday released a video showing nine Lebanese army and police hostages it said could pay the price for the Shiite group Hezbollah's military intervention in the Syrian conflict. The Al-Nusra Front video, entitled "Who Will Pay the Price?", shows the abducted members of Leba**n's security forces condemning Hezbollah, which has fought alongside President Bashar al-Assad's regime against rebels. More than 35 Lebanese police and soldiers were captured in unprecedented clashes on August 2 between the country's security forces and jihadists who had crossed the border from Syria. A captured Sunni Lebanese soldier, Ali Sayyed, was beheaded by IS militants whose sympathisers released an online video last week purporting to show the atrocity.
