Israeli Rockets Strike Military Position Near Aleppo

Baladi - Media

The Radio Farda, a media outlet, quoted the Syrian state media as saying on Sunday that Israeli rockets had struck a Syrian military position near Nairab airport on the outskirts of the city of Aleppo.

"The Zionist enemy...targets one of our military sites north of Nairab airport," the Syrian state news agency SANA said, quoting a military source.

It said the strikes were an attempt by Israel to support rebels in southern Syria, where Syrian government forces have been waging an offensive.

The strikes killed nine people at a logistics site used by Iran's Revolutionary Guards near the airport.

State media said the strikes caused only "material damage".

Israel, concerned that Iran's growing presence in Syria poses a threat to its security, has struck dozens of Iranian and Iran-backed positions in Syria over the course of the seven-year conflict.
