WorldSyria shoots down weapons shipment reportedly bound for Hezbollah in Lebanon

Syrian authorities say they intercepted a weapons shipment at the Al Tanf border crossing with Iraq. Officials said the cargo contained long-range missiles and drones and was reportedly intended for Hezbollah in Lebanon. They presented the seizure as a significant development under the new leadership of Ahmad al-Sharaa, following the fall of the Assad government. The interception took place as traditional regional supply routes face heightened scrutiny and mounting international pressure. Hezbollah rejected the accusation, challenging the claim that the shipment was meant for the group.
