Syrian defense ministry says soldier killed, 7 wounded in separate Israeli strikes
Israeli strikes on the Syrian capital Damascus and a military site near the western city of Homs early on Thursday killed one soldier and injured seven, the Syrian defense ministry says.
The attacks targeted the central Damascus neighborhood of Kafr Sousa and a military site in the Homs countryside, the ministry says in a statement, adding the strikes caused “material damage” without elaborating.
Earlier, Syrian state media said explosions were heard in Damascus after Israel struck a residential building in Kafr Sousa.
