Israeli Airstrikes in Syria Injure Two Soldiers, Says Military

Israeli airstrikes targeted military sites near the eastern Syrian city of Deir el-Zour, causing material damage and injuring two soldiers, according to Syrian state media. This comes two days after an alleged Israeli attack on an Iranian weapons shipment near Damascus. The Israeli military has not commented on the specific strikes, but it has admitted to conducting numerous sorties against Iran-backed groups in Syria over the past decade. Israel has accused the Syrian military of assisting Hezbollah, and previous airstrikes have targeted Syrian air defense systems.
