Israel said to launch strikes on Assad military targets in Syrian coastal provinces
A monitor of Syria’s war says that Israeli airstrikes targeted sites belonging to ousted president Bashar al-Assad’s military in the coastal Latakia and Tartus provinces.
“Israeli warplanes launched airstrikes” targeting “military sites” including “the Latakia port” as well as warehouses in neighboring Tartus province, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says, adding that “Israeli warplanes continue to destroy what remains of Syria’s military arsenal for the fourth consecutive day since the fall of the former regime.”
