Oddly enough just the other day I watched a documentary Youtube which I cannot for the life of me locate now, on the rescue the Soviet spies where several of the agents were interviewed years later. One thing they also stressed is that they would annihilate every single Hezbollah base and training camp in the Bekaa Valley, the locations of which they were obviously intimately familiar with.
