Israeli warplanes have bombed two crucial border crossings between Syria and Lebanon, vital for many Syrians as a link to the outside world amid the resurgence of Takfiri terror groups.
According to Lebanon's al-Mayadeen, the strikes hit the Jusiyah and al-Arida crossings early on Friday.
Details on casualties or damage were not immediately available, and there has been no official statement from Syrian authorities.
The Jusiyah crossing is strategically significant due to its position along the Syria-Lebanon border.
Israel often conducts strikes on military sites within Syria, particularly those associated with the Lebanese resistance group Hezbollah, which has been instrumental in supporting the Syrian army in its battle against foreign-backed terrorist groups.
Hezbollah’s Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem on Thursday pledged that the Lebanese group will stand by the Syrian government amid attempts by Takfiri terrorist groups to sow chaos in the country.
“They will not be able to achieve their goals despite what they have done in past days, and we as Hezbollah will be by Syria’s side in thwarting the goals of this aggression as much as we can,” Sheikh Qassem said in a televised speech.
He underscored that the aggression against Syria is sponsored by the United States and the Israeli regime.
Foreign-backed terrorists led by the Hay’at Tahrir al-Shams (HTS) Takfiri group launched a sudden onslaught on Aleppo on November 27 just after a ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel went into effect.
Syria has been gripped by foreign-sponsored militancy since March 2011, with Damascus saying the Western states and their regional allies are aiding terrorist groups to wreak havoc in the Arab country.
Terror outfits are seeking to hinder the Syrian government’s efforts aimed at consolidating security and stability in the country, which is also under the Israeli regime's regular aggression.
Israel has been the principal supporter of terrorist groups that oppose the democratically-elected government of President Bashar al-Assad since the foreign-backed militancy erupted in Syria.
