Syrian local government says 9 killed in Israeli bombardment overnight
The provincial government in southern Syria’s Daraa says nine civilians were killed and several were injured in Israeli bombardment following an “Israeli incursion.”
It says in a statement posted to Telegram that the shelling near the Syrian city of Nawa came after “an Israeli incursion” in the area. It says that this was the deepest into Syria that Israeli forces have advanced thus far.
Nawa is located some 9 kilometers from Tasil, where the IDF says Israeli troops operated overnight.
The military said a short while ago that while in the southern Syrian town, located beyond the demilitarized buffer zone along the border, troops came under fire from several gunmen, and retaliated with both ground and aerial strikes.
