BEIRUT: Three pro-Iran fighters were killed on Friday in Israeli strikes south of the Syrian capital, a war monitor said, the second such attack this week.
Syrian state media reported damage from “Israeli” air strikes south of Damascus, but did not mention any casualties.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitor said “three members of pro-Iran groups, including an Iranian and an Iraqi national” were killed in “Israeli air strikes,” adding the toll was provisional.
Strikes hit a site belonging to Lebanon’s Hezbollah group on a road leading to the Sayyida Zeinab district, the Observatory said, while a site previously vacated by pro-Iran groups on the road to the international airport was also targeted.
