Syrian Authorities Seize Dozens of Anti-Tank Missiles Bound for Hezbollah

Syrian customs officials intercepted a shipment of dozens of anti-tank missiles hidden inside a vehicle en route to Lebanon. The missiles were concealed in various parts of the car, including under the seats and beneath the hood. This seizure is part of a broader crackdown by Syrian authorities on arms smuggling operations.

Last week, Syrian officials announced the prevention of another arms shipment crossing the border with Iraq. Initial investigations suggest that the weapons were intended to transit through Syrian territory to reach Hezbollah in Lebanon. Damascus has declared this operation as part of its intensified efforts to combat weapons smuggling.

The intercepted shipment included advanced weaponry and missiles, highlighting ongoing regional arms trafficking concerns. Syrian Interior Ministry photos document the raids and seizures conducted by the authorities.
