The last attack in Syria took place two and a half weeks ago, according to N12 when the IDF attacked seven targets in Damascus using missiles from the Golan Heights.

Among the targets were military depots, a truck parking lot, and an anti-aircraft battery.

The Israeli strike was reportedly aimed at military sites, near the town of Al-Dimass. At these sites are reportedly warehouses belonging to Hezbollah, N12 reported.
