Israel attacks two cities in Syria, says Syrian state agency

Israeli attacks on Friday night (2) targeted near Rural Damascus and Hama, both in Syria, Syrian state news agency said without further details.

The repeated attacks from Israel to Syria act as a warning to new Islamic rulers in Damascus, seen as a potential threat to their border.

Israel did not confirm the attacks on Friday (2).

Attacks would be preventive

The Israeli army previously reported that the attacks aimed at Syria’s military infrastructure, including headquarters and warehouses with weapons and equipment.

The latest bombings began to be made after Islamic combatants, mostly Sunnis, overthrew dictator Bashar Al-Assad of the Syrian government in December.

Earlier this Friday, Israel bombed an area near the presidential palace in Damascus, in the clearest warning so far to the new Syrian authorities.

Israel also bombed Syria frequently when the country was ruled by Assad.
