Israeli airstrikes targeting locations in central and west Syria on
Sunday morning wounded three soldiers, state media reported. Syrian
Observatory for Human Rights said two pro-Iran fighters were killed and
three Syrian soldiers were wounded. SANA did not say what sites were
targeted, but the Observatory said a "scientific research centre" was
present in the areas. There was no comment from Israeli officials.
Israel has carried out hundreds of strikes on targets inside
government-controlled parts of Syria in recent years, including attacks
on the Damascus and Aleppo airports.
On Tuesday, Israeli warplanes killed three people in a raid on the
airport in Aleppo, Syria's second city and on February 19, Israeli
airstrikes targeted residential areas in Syria's capital, Damascus,
killing at least five people and wounding 15. In January, the Syrian
army said Israel's military fired missiles toward the capital's
international airport, putting it out of service and killing two
soldiers.
