On Saturday, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said that air strikes allegedly carried out by Israel targeted Hezbollah sites on the outskirts of Damascus.

The strikes caused violent explosions around Damascus, and killed five soldiers from the Syrian Armed Forces.

SANA reported that some of the sites targeted were destroyed.

Several days earlier, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights claimed that Israel carried out an air strike in the Quneitra region.

According to the organization, an Israeli plane attacked targets of the regime forces and their allies on the outskirts of the city of Baath and the village of Al-Krum in the area.

There were no reports of injuries, but damage was caused.
