Syria announced today (Wednesday) that eight soldiers were killed and seven others were injured as a result of Israeli bombing that targeted points in the Daraa countryside in the south of the country.
The Syrian News Agency (SANA) quoted a military source as saying, “At approximately 1:45 a.m. today, the Israeli enemy carried out an air attack from the direction of the occupied Syrian Golan, targeting a number of our military points in the Daraa countryside.”
The source added that the bombing "led to the death of eight military martyrs and the wounding of seven others, in addition to some material losses."
On Sunday, Syria warned that continuing Israeli attacks on its territory would “push the region into a broader spiral of violence that will be difficult to contain.”
The Syrian warning came after an attack on Damascus and Aleppo airports, which put them out of service and left one dead, according to Syrian official media.
Sunday's attack was the third attack targeting Aleppo Airport, and the second targeting Damascus Airport this month, amid escalating tension in the region in light of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip since October 7th.
Israel has repeatedly launched attacks on targets in Syria during the years of conflict that has been ongoing in the country since 2011, and the attacks have repeatedly targeted Aleppo and Damascus airports.
