Hezbollah said on Sunday it deplored the Houla massacre in neighbouring Syria. Without assigning a blame for the killings of at least 109 civilians in Houla in central Syria, a statement by Hezbollah said it \"strongly condemns the massacre and deplores those who carried it out\". The Shi\'ite guerrilla group is seeking the release of a group of Lebanese Shi\'ites kidnapped last week by an armed Sunni Muslim group in the northern Syrian province of Aleppo. The group crossed from Turkey on the way back from a pilgrimage to Iran.
