Attacks have escalated amid continuing war in Gaza and clashes with Hezbollah across Israel-Lebanon border.
Israeli air strikes on Syria’s northern province of Aleppo have killed at least 38 people, including soldiers and civilians.
The fatalities included five members of the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah, security sources told the Reuters news agency.
The attacks at about 1:45am on Friday (22:45 GMT on Thursday) targeted several areas in Aleppo’s countryside, Syria’s Ministry of Defence said. It did not provide casualty figures, only saying that a number of civilians and military personnel were killed and property was damaged after Israel and unnamed armed groups carried out the strikes.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said in posts on X that the Israeli strikes hit a weapons depot near Aleppo International Airport, resulting in a series of large explosions.
At least 36 Syrian soldiers were killed, the opposition war monitor said, adding that Hezbollah weapons depots were located in the area.
