Israeli aircraft launched strikes on the Jousiya and al-Masnaa border crossings between Syria and Lebanon.The Israeli military announced via the official spokesperson for Arab media on “X,” Avichai Adraee, on Friday, October 25, that its aircraft attacked military infrastructure belonging to Hezbollah at the Jousiya border crossing between Syria and Lebanon.
He added that Hezbollah exploited the civilian al-Qaa crossing (Jousiya on the Syrian side) to transport weapons from Syria to Lebanon, just as it exploited the civilian al-Masnaa crossing to use these weapons in operations against Israel.
According to the Israeli army, Hezbollah planned to transfer weapons through the al-Qaa crossing, which is controlled by the military security of the Syrian regime.
It noted that the weapons are delivered by the 4400 unit of Hezbollah, and these weapons are intended for use against Israeli forces in southern Lebanon.
The Israeli army called on the Syrian and Lebanese authorities to prevent the use of civilian crossings for terrorist purposes, stating that it will continue its efforts to thwart Hezbollah’s weapons transfer operations.
Lebanese Minister of Public Works and Transport, Ali Hamiyeh, stated that the al-Qaa crossing has ceased operations after an Israeli airstrike targeted the Syrian side of it.
The minister added in a statement to the Lebanese Al-Jadeed channel that the bombing occurred a few hundred meters from the Syrian security office at the al-Qaa crossing, known from the Syrian side as Jousiya.
