A Syrian activist near Wadi Khaled, near the city of Homs on the border with Lebanon, told Al Jazeera he witnessed Syrian army troops planting mines in farmland in the area.

In this video, he claims to have filmed several mounds of earth where the recently placed mines are located, around 200 metres inside the Syrian border.

Another activist who had spoken with the man who did the filming told Al Jazeera that a third man was seriously injured afterward when he stepped on a mine.
