Escalation of violence: Television presenter killed

Earlier, Syrian state television reported the death of presenter Safa Ahmad, describing her as a martyr who died as a result of the Israeli aggression on the capital, Damascus.

The SANA agency also added that air defence systems identified and intercepted "hostile targets for the third time that night in the Damascus region". The use of this term, typical for Israeli attacks, was confirmed by the AFP agency.

The Israeli army has been carrying out airstrikes on targets in Syria for many years, mainly on positions of Iran-backed fighters. The intensification of these actions occurred after the Palestinian Hamas attack on Israel, which took place on 7 October 2023.
