Syrian state media, citing a defense official, reported on Thursday that Hezbollah terrorists launched several artillery shells from Lebanese territory toward Syrian army positions in the Qusayr area, west of Homs.
The official added that the Syrian forces immediately targeted the sources of the fire after identifying the locations from which the shells had been fired.
"We are in contact with the Lebanese army to assess the situation. We have stopped targeting the sources of fire inside Lebanese territory at the request of the Lebanese army, after it pledged to search and pursue the terrorist groups responsible for targeting Syrian territory," the official stated.
Earlier in the day, US Congressman Cory Mills told Bloomberg that Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa, also known as Abu Mohammad al-Julani, expressed willingness in principle to join the Accords, if they take place under "the right conditions."
Those conditions would include the removal of economic sanctions on Syria, as well as a peace agreement between Syria and Israel. But al-Sharaa is open to addressing US concerns, Mills noted.
