Saja al-Duleimi, ISIL's leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, played an important role in providing the terrorist groups in Lebanon and Syria with logistic assistance, well-informed sources asserted.

The sources clarified that al-Duleimi used to move to Arsal, Tripoli, Dunniyeh, and Ain Helwe Palestinian camp in Sidon in order to meet female figures linked to the terrorist groups in preparation for carrying out her missions.

Al-Duleimi used to prepare lists of the names of the terrorists that the Takfiri groups want to release them in the exchange deal with the Lebanese government, according to the sources.

The same sources added that al-Duleimi had married Fateh al-Islam member Kamal Khalaf who was also arrested by the Lebanese army.

In addition to al-Duleimi, the terrorist Abu Ali al-Shishani's wife Alaa al-Oqaili is also under investigation, and her arrest is considered by the Lebanese army as a "good catch".

The apprehension of al-Duleimi and al-Oqaili in addition to several other terrorists represents a trump card for the Lebanese government which is seeking the release of over 20 members of army and security services who were kidnapped by the terrorist groups on Arsal barrens.

Armed terrorist groups affiliated with the so-called Al-Nusra Front, Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and Dawn of Islam Brigade clashed with the Lebanese army on the barrens of Arsal, north-east of Lebanon, leaving more than 20 soldiers killed and around 23 others kidnapped and missing.
