Hundreds of Syrian refugees in Lebanon return home following the liberation of their villages and cities from terrorist groups by the Syrian army and its allies. This is the first mass return from the capital Beirut. The fate of the Syrian refugees in Lebanon, however, remains unresolved as some sides refuse to have contact with the Syrian government. Hezbollah and its allies, however, are trying to help those who want to leave voluntarily. Mariam Saleh reports from Beirut.
