From Israeli attack targets Syria’s Homs countryside, Syrian state media says
An Israeli attack targets the area of Al-Qusayr in the southern countryside of Homs province in central Syria, Syria’s state media says.
Israel says it has been carrying out strikes to reduce the transfer of weapons from Iran through Syria to Hezbollah in Lebanon, which it says has spread to the town of Al-Qusayr, near the Syrian-Lebanese border.
Syrian media says air defenses intercepted “hostile” targets over the Homs countryside, though it often falsely claims such interceptions.
The Israeli military does not immediately respond to a request for comment.
