Israeli strike closes off road used to flee Lebanon to Syria, Lebanese transport minister says

An Israeli strike on Friday morning hit near Lebanon's Masnaa border crossing with Syria, cutting off a road used by hundreds of thousands of people to flee Israeli bombardments in recent days, Lebanon Transport Minister Ali Hamieh told Reuters.

Hamieh said the strike hit right after the border crossing, still within Lebanese territory, creating a 4-meter wide crater.
