The Syrian government has closed the Nasib border crossing with Jordan and halted all passenger travel and trade in both directions. This decision comes due to "current conditions and developments on the ground in the Daraa Governorate," as announced by the Syrian General Authority for Border Crossings and Customs. The move follows airstrikes by the Jordanian Air Force targeting militant hideouts in southern Syria, according to reports from Reuters.
Authorities in Damascus have expressed reservations about the military operations conducted inside Syrian territory without prior coordination. The Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has stated that it continues to engage with Jordan to understand the reasons behind the raids and to clarify the circumstances surrounding them, considering the evolving situation along their shared border.
