Israeli drone strikes near Damascus have killed six Syrian soldiers, Syria's government reported, marking a significant escalation in ongoing tensions between the two nations. Syria condemned the strike as a violation of international law and an infringement upon its sovereignty.

Following the initial attacks earlier in the week, Israeli forces reportedly carried out an airborne landing at a former military site, though details on what transpired remained vague. The Israeli military declined to comment on the situation, while Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz stated that 'forces are operating in all combat zones day and night for the security of Israel'.

This week alone, Israel conducted at least 95 operations in Syria, including air strikes and other military actions, primarily against targets it accuses of advancing extremist agendas. The latest strikes reportedly coincided with Syrian troops assessing surveillance equipment discovered in the area.

Further air strikes occurred around Damascus International Fair, intensifying the military conflict as both countries pursue deconfliction talks. Strikingly, this latest military action comes on the heels of past engagements, including strikes on Syrian government force operations in response to sectarian violence.}
