In a late-night attack, Israeli warplanes launched strikes on targets in the Syrian provinces of Homs and Hama, the country’s Ministry of Defense reported on Thursday.
According to the Syrian ministry’s statement, the airstrikes hit a car assembly plant in the Hassia industrial area of Homs, as well as a Syrian military site in Hama. The ministry said the attacks only resulted in material damage, with no reported casualties.
This latest incident comes just days after an Israeli airstrike on a residential building in Damascus killed seven civilians, including women and children. The Syrian government condemned that attack as a “cowardly missile strike” and a “terrorist bombing.”
The Iranian Embassy in Syria also condemns the recent strikes, stating that no Iranian citizens were among the casualties. The embassy offered condolences to the families of the victims and wished a speedy recovery for the injured.
“The Iranian embassy condemns this terrorist bombing and announces that there are no Iranian citizens among the martyrs and wounded. We ask God to grant the families of the martyrs patience and solace and a speedy recovery for the wounded,” the statement read.
