(Reuters) – Explosions were heard over Syria’s Damascus early on Thursday after Israel launched strikes on the city, Syrian state media said.
No further details were immediately available. Israel has been carrying out strikes against Iranian-linked targets in Syria for years, but has ramped up such raids since last year’s Oct. 7 attack by Palestinian militant group Hamas on Israel.
