SOHR: 2 soldiers wounded in Israeli airstrikes
There was no comment from Israel.
A Britain-based opposition war monitor, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said the Israeli airstrikes targeted a warehouse in the Damascus suburb of Sayyida Zeinab, killing three “non-Syrian nationals” who were affiliated with the Iran-backed Lebanese militant group Hezbollah.
The Observatory added that the airstrikes targeted positions of Iran-backed militias allied to the Syrian government.
The last reported Israeli attack in Syria was on Nov. 13. It killed two Syrian soldiers and wounded three at an airbase in the province of Homs.
Israeli leaders have in the past acknowledged striking targets in Syria and elsewhere in what it says is a campaign to thwart Iranian attempts to smuggle weapons to proxies such as Lebanon’s Hezbollah militant group or to destroy weapons caches
Last week, Israel’s military chief of staff strongly suggested that Israel was behind a Nov. 8 strike on a truck convoy in Syria.
