Security measures cause heavy traffic jam at northern border crossings

The state-run National News Agency reported on Tuesday that a heavy traffic jam was registered at Lebanon's northern border crossings due to the tight measures undertaken by Lebanese and Syrian posts.

The agency added that the long queues of vehicles reached several kilometers long at the Abboudieh and Arida crossings.

The measures taken by the border posts affected the movement of commuters from and into Syria, the agency noted.

Commuters urged the concerned authorities to act to resolve the crisis.
