Lebanese National Resistance Front The Lebanese National Resistance Front – LNRF ( Arabic : جبهة المقاومة الوطنية اللبنانية , transliterated : " Jabhat al - Muqawama al - Wataniyya al - Lubnaniyya " ) or Front National de la Résistance Libanaise ( FNRL ) in French , but best known by its Arabic acronym , ‘ Jammoul ’ ( جمول ) , was an underground guerrilla alliance active in Lebanon in the 1980s . It acted as a successor to the Lebanese National Movement . Origins . This organization was founded on September 16 , 1982 , the same day the Israeli army entered West Beirut . The secretary general of the central committee of the Lebanese Communist Party ( LCP ) George Hawi , the secretary general of the Organization of Communist Action – Lebanon ( OCAL ) Muhsin Ibrahim , the Arab Socialist Action Party – Lebanon ( ASAP - L ) secretary general Hussein Hamdan , and the Syrian Social Nationalist Party issued that day a joint communiqué calling for the Lebanese people to raise up in arms and unite into a " Lebanese National Resistance Front " against Israel . The pro - Syrian Arab Democratic Party ( ADP ) and the Lebanese Armed Revolutionary Factions ( LARF ) soon rallied to the LNRF banner , which gained full support of Palestine Liberation Organization ( PLO ) leftist and marxist factions based in Lebanon , mainly from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine ( PFLP ) and the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine ( DFLP ) . Structure and organization . The LNRF did not have the strength of other larger militant groups in Lebanon , but by all accounts , it was a highly effective force , being estimated at some 200 – 500 or so fighters drawn from the LCP , OCAL , ADP , LARF , PFLP and DFLP , placed under the overall command of Elias Atallah . A joint operational HQ was established at the village of Kfar Rumman in the Jabal Amel region of southern Lebanon , with Hawi and Ibrahim meeting daily in secret to coordinate the activities of the Front ’ s underground cells at west Beirut , Sidon , Tyre and Nabatiyeh in southern Lebanon . Most observers believe that the Front was a pro - Syrian organization whose membership was primarily Lebanese . However , the PLO stated that the actions claimed by the LNRF were actually carried out by isolated Palestinian guerrilla cells and some radical Lebanese leftists who supported them . Activities : 1982 – 85 . The LNRF carried out 128 guerrilla attacks against the IDF and Israeli - related targets in Beirut , Mount Lebanon and the South in June , July and August 1983 . At this point it was known as the Lebanese National Salvation Front and was backed by Syria . Decline and demise : 1986 – 2000 . A considerable number of LNRF fighters were killed in combat while fighting Israeli and South Lebanese Army ( SLA ) troops , whereas militants such as Anwar Yassin and Soha Bechara were taken prisoner and held in the infamous Khiam detention center . Several others were liquidated in assassinations against leftist activists in Beirut and southern Lebanon in the late 1980s . The last recorded Jammoul operation in the south occurred on 1999 .
