The Palestinian Resistance movement Hamas condemned on Tuesday the Israeli aggression on the village of Koayiah in Daraa's countryside, Syria, which targeted residential neighborhoods.
In a statement, Hamas stressed that the escalation uncovered the criminal Israeli occupation's intentions in Syria, highlighting that "Israel" is expanding its aggression to include the region's countries and people.
Hamas also praised the Syrian people's bravery as they confronted the Israeli forces trying to impose their authority on their lands, and called "on all Arab and Islamic countries to assume their responsibilities regarding the escalating Zionist aggression and to take strong positions in confronting the crimes of the occupation and its colonial schemes."
Seven people were martyred 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.
The ongoing Israeli bombardment on Koayiah has led to the displacement of residents to nearby towns and villages, according to the sources.
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.
