Israeli warplanes and helicopters struck targets belonging to forces loyal to Syria’s Bashar al-Assad regime Monday in the northern part of the capital Damascus.
“SEVERAL BASES WERE STRUCK”
Israeli army spokesperson Avichay Adraee announced on social media that the move was in response to an attempt yesterday to attack the occupied Golan Heights.
Adraee said command centers of the regime forces, military bases and observation and intelligence posts were struck.
Underlining that Israel will continue to respond to attacks against it, he said it held the Assad regime responsible for such attacks against Israel from Syrian territory.
Israel has occupied most of the Syrian Golan Heights since the 1967 Middle East War.
