Truck drivers transporting goods between Syria and Lebanon are persevering in their work despite the increasing intensity of Israeli attacks on Lebanon. The 'Jadida Yabous' crossing is one of the most significant arteries for overland transport between the two countries, facilitating the passage of trucks laden with food, agricultural products, and various goods on a daily basis. This makes the crossing a critical point for trade flow between Syria and Lebanon, emphasizing its importance amid the ongoing conflict.

Workers in the transport sector report that operations are continuing, even though there are concerns among drivers due to the sounds of bombing in the area in recent days. Mohammed Idris, an employee at a cargo transport office, stated that the movement of trucks has remained normal, with no noticeable impact on the drivers, as they proceed with their tasks. He also mentioned a brief period of anxiety among the drivers following rumors of potential targeting of the crossing, which led some to leave temporarily before returning to work.

While there are occasional minor barriers on the Lebanese side, driver Ahmed Al-Sheikh confirmed that there are no obstacles from the Syrian side. Despite the challenging situation, including the potential impacts of violence, the commitment of these truck drivers highlights their crucial role in maintaining the flow of essential goods during a time of crisis, ensuring that supplies, particularly food and agricultural products, reach their destinations.
