Group: Israeli strikes in Syria killed 5 foreign fighters

A Syrian war monitoring group says Israeli airstrikes the previous day on military posts south of the capital, Damascus, killed five foreign fighters and wounded several others. Lebanon’s Iran-backed Hezbollah confirmed one of its fighters was killed in the strike. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says it wasn’t immediately clear if the dead were Iranians or members of Iran-backed groups. The group says those wounded in Monday’s attack include four foreign fighters and seven Syrian members of an air-defense unit. Israel rarely comments on such reports but is believed to have carried out scores of raids targeting Iran’s military presence in Syria.
