A missile attack in Damascus has resulted in the deaths of at least seven civilians and injured 11, including women and children. Syrian state media reported that Israeli jets flying over the Golan Heights launched three missiles at a residential area in Mezzeh, causing significant damage. The building targeted was near the Iranian embassy, and reports suggest the attack may have been aimed at a Hezbollah official in charge of supplying weapons to the militia from Iran.
Israel has not officially commented on the airstrike, but it has a history of targeting Syria, citing self-defense against Iran and its proxies. The attack comes amid ongoing Israeli operations in Lebanon against Hezbollah. Iran has also responded with missile launches at Israel, warning of further retaliation.
