“Two rockets were fired from Syria into Israeli territory and struck open areas,” she said in a second statement afterwards. The army also said it was investigating the possibility of air infiltration from Lebanon.
An Israeli airstrike targeted the airport in Aleppo, a city in northern Syria, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (OSDH) announced, days after similar attacks on the airports in Aleppo and Damascus.
Maximum alert
According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, Palestinian groups working with the Iran-backed Hezbollah on Saturday “fired a rocket at the Golan Heights, occupied from (…) the western countryside of Daraa” in southern Syria.
Israel has been on high alert on its northern borders since October 7, when Palestinian commandos attacked the south of the country on multiple fronts from the Gaza Strip, killing more than 1,300 people, mostly civilians, and capturing at least 120 others in captivity in Gaza.
The strong Israeli response killed more than 2,200 people, including more than 700 children, in the Gaza Strip, a poor area controlled by Hamas.
