The Israeli army on Friday night bombed an Assad regime arms depot in southern Syria, it announced.
“Overnight, in response to launches from Syria toward the southern Golan Heights which didn't cross into Israeli territory, IDF (Israeli army) artillery struck the area of the fire, and fighter jets struck a weapons storage facility of the Syrian army in the area of Mhajjah,” the Israeli army said in a statement on Saturday.
There was no comment from the regime on the Israeli army statement.
The Israeli army also said that on Friday, its “fighter jets struck Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure in the area of Jabal Blat, (and) a terrorist was killed at the scene.”
On Friday, Hezbollah mourned another fighter killed in clashes with the Israeli army, bringing the group's death toll since Oct. 8 to 203.
“A military compound was struck in the area of Bint Jbeil,” it added, noting that the army “artillery struck in a number of areas in southern Lebanon.”
Tension has flared along the border between Lebanon and Israel amid intermittent exchanges of fire between Israeli forces and Hezbollah, in the deadliest clashes since the two sides fought a full-scale war in 2006.
The border tension comes amid an Israeli military offensive in the Gaza Strip that has killed more than 28,775 people following a cross-border attack by the Palestinian group Hamas on Oct. 7 last year.
