A Syrian military officer was killed in an alleged Israeli airstrike in southern Syria on Wednesday morning, the state-run SANA news agency reported.
Citing a military source, SANA said two Syrian military sites in Quneitra and Daraa were targeted by Israeli drones. The strikes also caused “material losses,” the report added.
There was no comment on the strike from the Israel Defense Forces, which has carried out hundreds of strikes inside Syria since the outbreak of that country’s civil war in 2011, mainly targeting attempts to transfer weapons to the Hezbollah terror group, an Iranian proxy, or to keep Iranian fighters themselves from gaining a foothold near Israel’s border.
On Wednesday morning, the IDF said an explosive-laden drone launched from Lebanon struck the Metula area in northern Israel, causing no injuries. The military said another suspected drone was shot down by air defenses over the northern town of Sde Eliezer.
At the same time, another strike was carried out against infrastructure belonging to the terror group in Baraachit, the military added.
Hezbollah announces the deaths of three members following the strikes.
Meanwhile, Lebanese media outlets reported several Israeli airstrikes in the coastal town of Borgholiyeh, just north of Tyre.
Footage posted to social media showed the strikes. There was no immediate comment from the IDF.
