Israel destroys Lebanon-Syria border crossing

Israel's military said Friday it had conducted air strikes on the Syria-Lebanon border, just over a week into a fragile ceasefire in Lebanon.

The Israeli air force "conducted strikes on weapon-smuggling routes and terror infrastructure sites located near the Syrian regime's crossings at the Syrian-Lebanese border", the military said in a statement that included a map identifying the crossing as al-Arida.

Syrian state news agency Sana reported that "the al-Arida border crossing between Syria and Lebanon is out of service again due to an Israeli attack that targeted it" early Friday.
