Syrian media reports Israeli airstrikes on the border with Lebanon a short while ago.

The state-run SANA news agency says the strikes targeted the Jusiyah Crossing in the Homs Governorate, close to Lebanon’s northeastern border with Syria.

The IDF does not immediately comment on the strike.

Last month, the military confirmed striking the Jusiyah Crossing after it was being used by Hezbollah to smuggle Iranian weapons into Lebanon.

Israel has struck several other border crossings between Lebanon and Syria in recent months, amid efforts by Iran to supply Hezbollah with weapons.
