Damascus accuses Hezbollah of firing artillery at Syrian army positions across the border

The Syrian military accuses Lebanese terror group Hezbollah of launching shells toward Syrian army positions near the border town of Serghaya, state-run news agency SANA reports.

The Syrian military says in a statement that “appropriate options are being studied to do what is necessary” and the army “will not tolerate any aggression targeting Syria.”

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun later says that he spoke with Syrian interim President Ahmad al-Sharaa and agreed that the countries need to coordinate “to control the borders and prevent any security breaches.”

Hezbollah has claimed to be clashing with Israeli troops in Serghaya, which the IDF has denied.

In a statement, the terror group denies firing on Syrian troops and says: “We have no intent of opening a [second] front while we are engaged with the Israelis.”
