Syria says 2 soldiers killed, 6 wounded in Israeli air strike over Tartus

(Worthy News) – Syrian state media on Wednesday accused Israel of carrying out an air strike over Tartus that killed two Syrian soldiers and wounded six others.

The attack took place unusually during daylight hours, at approximately 5:20pm. Syrian state TV reported that the attack was launched from the Mediterranean Sea and resulted in significant damage.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a UK-based opposition war monitor, reported that three Hezbollah operatives were killed in the attack, and loud explosions were heard in the area. However, the reports have not been verified by Syria. [ Source: Ynet News (Read More…) ]
