Israeli forces launched artillery and drone strikes on the village of Koaiyah in western Daraa, Syria, killing at least seven people and injuring others, according to local sources.

The attack followed clashes between Syrian residents and an Israeli occupation military unit attempting to infiltrate the area, Daraa Governor Anwar Taha al-Zou'bi confirmed.

He condemned the Israeli occupation's repeated violations of Syrian sovereignty and held the Israeli military responsible for civilian casualties.

The Israeli aggression has triggered displacement, with residents fleeing Koaiyah to nearby towns and villages.

Protests erupt in Daraa against Israeli aggression

In response to the Israeli incursion and bombardment, residents of Aal-Hirak in eastern Daraa staged a solidarity rally with Koaiyah’s residents, denouncing the attack. Simultaneously, a protest in Muzayrib, western Daraa, condemned the Israeli occupation's continued aggression on Syrian territory.

Seven people were killed and several others were injured, in an initial toll, following an Israeli airstrike targeting the town of Koayiah, west of Daraa, in southern Syria, local sources told Al Mayadeen on Tuesday.

The sources indicated that the Israeli bombardment targeted Koayiah in the al-Yarmouk Basin area, west of Daraa, with tank shells.

Israeli airstrikes target two military bases in central Syria

Earlier on Tuesday, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that Israeli airstrikes targeted the Palmyra Airport and the T-4 military bases in eastern Homs countryside, central Syria.

The Israeli occupation military said that it had once again targeted the two military bases, a day after the European Union’s foreign policy chief warned that such strikes, along with those in Lebanon, risked escalating tensions.

The military had previously claimed responsibility for targeting the same bases on Friday.

During a visit to occupied al-Quds on Monday, EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas cautioned that Israeli airstrikes on Syria and Lebanon were exacerbating regional instability.

"Military actions must be proportionate, and Israeli strikes into Syria and Lebanon risk further escalation," Kallas said at a joint news conference with Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar.

"We feel that these things are unnecessary because Syria is right now not attacking Israel and that feeds more radicalisation that is also against Israel," Kallas told journalists.

"Israel" has conducted hundreds of airstrikes on military sites in Syria since the ousting of Bashar al-Assad's regime in December, claiming that its assaults are aimed at preventing weapons from reaching the new authorities.
