New Israeli Airstrikes Hit Syrian-Lebanese Border

On Thursday evening, Israeli forces targeted a bridge in the Qusair area near the northern Lebanese border, according to the Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA).

Syrian air defenses responded by launching surface-to-air missiles at the fighter jets, SANA reported. No further details were provided.

This strike followed an earlier attack on Damascus and its surroundings, which resulted in 15 deaths and 16 injuries, including women and children, as reported by the Syrian Ministry of Defense.

The Israeli Army stated that the strike targeted military buildings and command centers of the “Islamic Jihad movement” in Syria.
