Syria closes Nassib crossing after Jordanian airstrikes

Syrian authorities announced the closure of the Nassib border crossing with Jordan for 27 October 2026, following Jordanian airstrikes in Daraa province. The suspension covers passenger and commercial traffic in both directions.

Amman presents its strikes on 26 October as a response to the church attack in Karak governorate and says it targeted terrorist organisations. Damascus says there was no prior coordination.

Syrian health officials report civilian deaths and injuries, including children. Available casualty figures are changing and do not provide a settled total for this report. The identities of those targeted and their alleged link to the Karak attack have not been independently established in the material consulted.
