The Jawsiyah crossing in Qussair town southwest of Homs had been closed as a result of the ongoing conflict and both countries relied largely on the Masnaa crossing near Damascus, state news agency SANA reported.
Interior Minister Muhammad Sha'ar and Homs Governor Talal Barazi attended the reopening ceremony. Travellers and passengers can travel to Lebanon through this crossing from Friday, Xinhua news agency cited the report in SANA as saying.
Syria and Lebanon share four border crossings, three of which were closed during the war, but most travellers have used the Masnaa crossing.
For the Syrians, travelling to Beirut was a must in order to catch an international flight as all international flights to Damascus were halted during the war.
