Syria’s SANA state media said that three Syrian soldiers were killed and material damage was caused by the strikes that targeted sites near Damascus International Airport and others.
The airstrikes came one day after Israel allegedly fired surface-to-surface missiles at an observation post and other targets near the town of Quneitra on the Syrian Golan Heights. Following the strike in Quneitra, Israel reportedly dropped leaflets on Syrian army positions warning that they could be targeted for collaborating with Hezbollah.
Israel was also accused of striking a number of sites near Zakyah, south of Damascus, by surface-to-surface missiles last week and the week before saw several other airstrikes, one of which set off incoming rocket sirens near the town of Umm el Fahm and other towns in the northern West Bank after a Syrian anti-aircraft crossed into Israeli airspace.
The rocket exploded in the air, with shrapnel falling in the area of Jenin. READ MORE
