Israeli strikes hit Iranian positions in Syria – monitor

Beirut, Lebanon: Air strikes hit positions of Iranian-aligned militia in Syria's Hama region on Thursday (Friday in Manila) causing 'several casualties', a war monitor said, blaming Israel for the attacks.

'Israeli strikes targeted positions and depots of arms and ammunition of Iran-affiliated militias,' the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

Supporters of the Islamic Jihad group attend a gathering to praise their fighters killed in the last round of fighting between Israel and Gaza Strip militants, on August 25, 2022, at the Yarmuk Palestinian refugee camp, in the southern outskirts of the Syrian capital Damascus.
