The Syrian Border Guard intercepted a shipment of rockets near the Lebanese border on Saturday, according to military sources. The seizure occurred in the Khosh al-Sayed Ali area, a known smuggling route between Syria and Lebanon.
Initial investigations suggest the rockets were destined for Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed terror group operating in southern Lebanon.
Syrian authorities have not disclosed the exact number or type of rockets seized but confirmed they were hidden in a vehicle attempting to cross into Lebanese territory.
The Khosh al-Sayed Ali region has frequently been used by Hezbollah for arms transfers, bypassing international monitoring. This latest seizure underscores ongoing efforts by Damascus to maintain control along its border and prevent unauthorized weapons flows that could escalate regional tensions.
