An Israeli airstrike near Lebanon's Masnaa border crossing with Syria cut off a road used by hundreds of thousands to flee the recent fighting, according to the Lebanese Transport Minister Ali Hamieh.

Hamieh told Reuters the strike hit inside Lebanon, near the crossing, creating a 12-foot-wide crater.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) accused Hezbollah on Thursday of using the crossing to transport military equipment into Lebanon.
