A number of Iranian military advisers lost their lives in an Israeli attack south of the Syrian capital, Damascus, as reported by Syria’s state-run news agency SANA.
According to SANA, the Israeli strike was directed at multiple sites situated south of Damascus, marking a significant escalation in the ongoing tensions between Iran and Israel.
The attack not only targeted military personnel but also resulted in the loss of several Syrian civilians, although an exact figure has not been provided by SANA.
The heightened discord between Iran and Israel comes amid the persisting conflict in the Gaza Strip and a series of Houthi attacks on ships heading to Israel in the Red Sea.
Furthermore, the strained relations between Tehran and Washington have taken a turn for the worse due to a series of attacks on US bases in Iraq and Syria.
These attacks have further soured the diplomatic ties between the two nations in recent months.
