Israeli strikes kill several in Damascus - Syrian state media

At least three people were killed and nine others were injured in Damascus in the early hours of Tuesday morning after Syrian state media reported Israeli strikes.

"The Israeli enemy launched an air aggression with warplanes and drones from the direction of the occupied Syrian Golan, targeting several points in Damascus," Syria's state-run SANA news agency said.

A television presenter was reportedly among those killed.

Syrian state television said in a statement that it "mourns anchor Safaa Ahmad who was martyred in the Israeli aggression on the capital Damascus."

Israel did not immediately comment on the reports.
