Israeli Strikes Injure Seven Civilians in Syria's Central Region

On Friday, Israeli strikes on Syria's central region injured seven civilians, according to the Syrian defence ministry. Israel has long targeted Iran-linked positions in Syria, and the frequency of these attacks has surged since last October. The Syrian ministry noted some rockets were intercepted.

On Friday, seven civilians sustained injuries from Israeli strikes on Syria's central region, the Syrian defence ministry announced.

Over the years, Israel has targeted Iran-aligned locations in Syria, citing Tehran's growing influence since its support of President Bashar al-Assad in the 2011 civil war. The attacks have significantly increased since the Gaza conflict reignited last October.

The Syrian defence ministry reported that some of the Israeli rockets were intercepted. However, the strikes still resulted in injuries and material damage. Israel has not yet commented on the specific incidents.
