Israeli warplanes said to hit Assad-controlled building
Israeli warplanes on Wednesday reportedly strike a building controlled by the Syrian government near the city of Quneitra on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights.
According to Arabic media reports, the planes bomb a target in the city of Medinat al-Ba’ath, near the demilitarized zone in Syria.
It isn’t immediately clear what purpose the building served, or whether it is occupied at the time of the strike. There are no immediate word on casualties.
Unconfirmed reports indicate that the planes targeted Hezbollah operatives in the area.
