A Syrian military source confirmed that the Israeli occupation forces launched an airstrike on a site near the southeastern entrance of the city of Latakia on Wednesday, injuring several civilians and causing significant material damage to the targeted area.

The source did not provide further details on the specific site targeted but confirmed the extent of the damage and injuries. This latest incident follows a series of Israeli attacks on Syrian territory.

Russia expressed deep concerns over the Israeli occupation's military operations in Syria, with the Russian ambassador to "Israel" voicing Moscow's alarm at the continued Israeli strikes, which have escalated in recent weeks.

Just last week, Israeli forces carried out strikes on industrial areas in Homs' Hassia district and a military site in Hama.

"Israel" has regularly conducted airstrikes in Syria, which frequently result in civilian casualties and damage.

The Syrian Ministry of Defense mentioned that the strikes targeted a car assembly plant, in the Hassia industrial area, in the countryside of Homs, and a Syrian military site in Hama.

Days earlier, an Israeli airstrike targeted a residential building in the Mazzeh neighborhood of Damascus, killing nine people and injuring 14 others.

"The Israeli enemy launched an aerial aggression... targeting a residential and commercial building in the densely populated Mazzeh neighborhood of Damascus," the Defense Ministry stated, adding that the attack was carried out using three missiles from the direction of the occupied Syrian Golan.

The Iranian Embassy in Syria condemned the aggression as a "cowardly missile attack" and another crime committed by "Israel".

"Once again, the Israeli enemy committed another crime during a cowardly missile attack on a civilian building in the heart of Damascus, killing innocent women and children," the embassy said in a statement.

"The Iranian embassy condemns this terrorist bombing and announces that there are no Iranian citizens among the martyrs and wounded. We ask God to grant the families of the martyrs patience and solace and a speedy recovery for the wounded," the statement read.
