Attempts to transfer Iranian weapons to Hezbollah through the various corridor routes continue, even in the midst of fighting. During the evening hours on August 2nd, according to local reports, several trucks were attacked in the area of Hawsh Al-Sayyed Ali, on the Syria-Lebanon border, northeast of the city of Al Hermel in the Beqaa. If the reports are correct and the video of the damaged trucks is authentic, in our estimation the trucks made their way from Syrian territory to Lebanese territory and they transported weapons within the land corridor to Hezbollah in Lebanon. On June 11, trucks belonging to Hezbollah’s Unit 4400, which is responsible for transferring weapons to Lebanon in cooperation with Unit 190 of the Iranian Quds Force, were attacked in the same area. This is a central route of the weapons corridor to Lebanon.
According to other local reports, on the evening of August 2nd, the Syrian military airport Al Daaba (southwest of the city of Homs) was also attacked. Extensive activity of the Shia Axis and Hezbollah has been known in Al Daaba for a long time. Iranian air defense systems were located there. It is known that Hezbollah’s air unit (Unit 127) operates there and it is known that medium-sized Iranian military planes land there from time to time. The Hawsh Al-Sayyed Ali border crossing area and Al Daaba airport (which are about 14 kilometers from each other) are important sites in the infrastructure for the weapons corridor route that passes through the city of Homs and from there to the town of Al-Qusyr towards Lebanon.
