Israel denies reports of overnight strikes in Syria
Jerusalem, July 18 (AFP) Jul 18, 2025
Israel on Friday denied reports on the Syrian state news agency that it had conducted further air strikes near the Druze-majority city of Sweida late the previous day.

"The (Israeli military) is not aware of overnight strikes in Syria," a spokesperson told AFP.

Israel bombed the Syrian army in Sweida and Damascus earlier this week to pressure the Islamist-led government to withdraw its troops from the Druze heartland around Sweida following deadly sectarian clashes. Syrian troops pulled out on Thursday.
