The US-led coalition says it will keep blocking a convoy of evacuated Islamic State militants in Syria from reaching IS-held territory on the Iraq border.
The hundreds of fighters recently surrendered an enclave on Syria's border with Lebanon.
They agreed with Hezbollah and the Syrian government that they would leave with their families and head eastwards.
But the coalition says it and Iraq were not part of the deal and on Wednesday bombed the road ahead of the convoy.
The buses are now stranded in an area of desert under Syrian government control between the towns of Humayma and al-Sukhnah.
