Masna'a crossing closed

The Masna'a crossing between Syria and Lebanon has been closed after an Israeli attack. It is the main crossing point between the two countries.

It's a vital escape route for civilians, and one of the only places aid can come into the country.

Israeli jets hit 300 meters beyond the Lebanese passport control, in the long road towards the Syrian passport control - that territory is recognised as Lebanese.

No more rockets supply from Syria to Hezbollah
