Lebanese security officials received two Lebanese sisters kidnapped in Syria months ago.

A reliable security source said the two sisters were released as a result of efforts exerted by Qatari and Turkish authorities, pointing out they arrived via Turkey.

The two sisters Nebal and Houria Abdein were taken hostage by opposition forces four months ago while they were visiting their sister in Aleppo.

They were received at the airport by Hezbollah MP Nawwar Al Sahly.
