DAMASCUS/JERUSALEM – Israeli warplanes on Monday launched a series of airstrikes on a military installation in southern Syria’s Daraa, killing at least two people and wounding 19 others, Syrian state media reported.
The state-run SANA news agency reported that at least five air raids struck military positions in Daraa, targeting the 132nd Brigade in the Airport District. Israeli jets continued to circle over southern Syria following the attack, it noted.
In a statement on Monday, the Israeli military said it launched a series of airstrikes in southern Syria, “striking military targets” belonging to the Syrian army.
Warplanes struck command centers and military sites, where, according to the statement, weapons and military vehicles have been stored.
“The presence of military assets in southern Syria poses a threat to the State of Israel,” the military said.
The strikes were the latest in a series of Israeli attacks on infrastructure belonging to the Syrian military.
The war monitoring group Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has documented over 29 Israeli strikes on Syrian territory since the start of 2025, many of which targeted weapons depots and military outposts linked to the previous administration.
