The group pointed specifically to Israeli forces' bombing late last week of the primary border crossing between Lebanon and Syria. The attack, as Al Jazeera reported at the time, cut off "a road linking the two countries that was being used by hundreds of thousands of people to flee Israeli bombardments in recent days."
Citing aid workers on the ground, the BBCreported that Israel's destruction of the crossing's main road "hinders both the movement of people and also food and humanitarian supplies" by preventing vehicle access. In desperation, some have still tried to "make the journey on foot," the BBC added, "with pictures showing families clambering over rubble and scrambling through the four-meter crater in the road to get out of the country."
Lama Fakih, Middle East and North Africa director at Human Rights Watch (HRW), said in a statement Monday that "by making a border crossing inaccessible at a time when hundreds of thousands of people are fleeing fighting and many others are in need of aid, the Israeli military threatens considerable civilian harm."

Experts emphasized the escalating risks of climate-related disasters and their disproportionate impacts on low-income people on Monday following flooding in Brazil that has killed at least 150 people and displaced more than 600,000.
The floods that hit over recent days and weeks have knocked out bridges and the main airport in Porto Alegre, a port city in southern Brazil. More than 460 of the 497 municipalities in the southern state of Rio Grande do Sol have been affected, with more than 2 million people impacted, according to provisional government data.
"The situation is catastrophic," said Rachel Soeiro, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) medical coordinator in Brazil, who visited the area by helicopter. "We were able to view the towns from above and noticed that in some cases we couldn't even see the roofs of houses.”
More than two feet of rain has fallen so far this month, according Brazil's national weather service, inundating large areas.
"Whole towns and large, urban city centers are in some cases almost completely underwater," the BBCreported on Saturday.

Sperm Donor Who Fathered Over 550 Children Ordered To Stop By Dutch Court
According to Dutch clinical guidelines, sperm donors should not donate to more than 12 women or should not father over 25 children.
Tumblr media
A court in the Netherlands on Friday banned a man from donating any more of his sperm after he was suspected of fathering more than 550 children. The man named Jonathan Jacob Meijer aged 41, could be fined more than 100,000 Euros (Rs 90,41,657) if he tries to donate again, BBCreported.
The shocking case came to the limelight after a foundation and the mother of one of the children filed a lawsuit against him in Hague. The judge who heard the civil case said the donor "misinformed prospective parents about the number of children he had already fathered in the past.''
"All these parents are now confronted with the fact that the children in their family are part of a huge kinship network, with hundreds of half-siblings, which they did not choose. The court prohibits the defendant from donating his semen to new prospective parents after the issuing of this judgement," Judge Hesselink said in a ruling on Friday.
He has also been ordered not to contact any prospective parents "with the wish that he was willing to donate semen... advertise his services to prospective parents or join any organisation that establishes contact between prospective parents," Mr Hesselink added,
Notably, Mr Meijer donated his sperm to at least 13 clinics, with 11 of them located in the Netherlands. According to Dutch clinical guidelines, sperm donors should not donate to more than 12 women or should not father over 25 children. This is to prevent cases of accidental breeding and psychological problems in children who may get disturbed after learning that they have hundreds of siblings.
However, he helped produce between 550 and 600 children since he started donating sperm in 2007. In 2017, he was banned from donating to fertility clinics in the Netherlands. Instead of stopping he carried on donating sperm abroad and online.
The mother of one of the children in the court case said she was grateful that the court had stopped the man from ''mass donations that [have] spread like wildfire to other countries''.
"I'm asking the donor to respect our interests and to accept the verdict because our children deserve to be left alone," she said in an official statement.
However, the donor's lawyer said in a court hearing that he wanted to help parents who would otherwise be unable to conceive. A musician by profession, Mr Meijer currently lives in Kenya.

"Have you heard about the recent altercation between Elon Musk and a BBC reporter over 'hate speech'? Apparently, during a recent interview, the reporter accused Musk of using hate speech on social media, to which Musk responded by asking for specific examples. When the reporter couldn't provide any, Musk called him out for making baseless accusations. This incident highlights the importance of being mindful of our words and actions online, as well as the need for accountability and concrete evidence when making accusations. What are your thoughts on this?" #ElonMusk #BBCReporter #HateSpeech #SocialMedia #Accountability
