Syrian authorities thwarted an attempt to smuggle a large shipment of advanced weapons across the country’s border with Iraq that was destined for the Lebanese group Hezbollah, the Interior Ministry said Thursday.
The ministry said specialised units intercepted the shipment before it entered Syrian territory after detecting a suspicious vehicle parked near the border.
A search of the vehicle uncovered a cache of weapons, including long-range missiles, anti-tank guided missiles and drones, it said.
