The Israeli occupation launched airstrikes at al-Kiswah, south of Damascus in Syria, according to reports by Syria TV broadcaster.

According to the broadcaster, initial data indicates that the airstrikes targeted positions belonging to the 75th Brigade of the former Syrian army.

Since the collapse of Syria's former regime, the Israeli occupation has intensified and escalated its attacks on the Arab nation, targeting its military bases and residential neighborhoods, occupying its southern lands, and invading its towns regularly. 

Israeli media outlets reported that Israeli Security Minister Israel Katz participated in a Passover celebration this morning with employees of the Ministry of Security. In his address to the ministry staff, Katz stated, "Israel will not allow Syria to threaten its settlements and security interests.

IOF forces will continue to operate on Mount Hermon, the security zone, and the buffer zone to defend the settlements in the Golan Heights and the occupied al-Jalil from any potential threats. This includes actions such as yesterday's strike against terrorists threatening our forces."

Syrian media reported on Thursday morning that Israeli shelling on the al-Jubailiyah forest in the Western Daraa countryside killed ten people.

Local sources also confirmed that ten civilians were injured and taken to Nawa Hospital due to the Israeli shelling in the region. Furthermore, Israeli forces increased artillery attacks on the Nawa area, the Tasil Forest, and Tal al-Jumu', leading to more civilian casualties.

Additionally, Israeli occupation forces bombarded Tal al-Ahmar in the northern Quneitra countryside near Khan Arnabeh with artillery shells.

The Syrian Foreign Ministry condemned the Israeli aggression, particularly the near-total destruction of Hama Military Airport, which resulted in numerous casualties. The ministry declared that this recent wave of Israeli attacks violates both international law and Syria's sovereignty.

Local sources informed Al Mayadeen that Israeli forces targeted weapon and ammunition depots, as well as military aircraft at Hama Air Base. The raids also targeted vehicles in the vicinity of the airport and military positions along the Misyaf-Hama road, the sources said, adding that the Israeli airstrikes exceeded 15, with the base now being described as nearly destroyed.

In Homs, local media reported loud explosions in the vicinity of the T4 military airport in the Homs countryside, which Israeli Channel 12 counted as one of the targets of the aggression.
