Israeli air raids target Syrian city of Aleppo as regional tensions rise

Al Jazeera  

Syrian defence ministry says the ‘aerial aggression’ came from the Mediterranean and hit a number of places. “Israel carried out an aerial aggression from the direction of the Mediterranean Sea, west of Latakia, targeting a number of points south of the city of Aleppo,” the statement said on Saturday. The Syrian state media, citing a military source, said “the Israeli enemy carried out an air attack… targeting a number of points south of the city of Aleppo” at about 5:20pm on Saturday. “Warplanes were situated over the Mediterranean when they launched the missiles towards several targets in the city of Aleppo.” During more than a decade of war in Syria, Israel has launched hundreds of air raids on its territory, primarily targeting Iran-backed forces including Lebanese Hezbollah fighters, as well as Syrian army positions. “There were several Israeli air raids mainly on the town of Bint Jbeil … According to reports, there are no casualties,” he said.
