Rif Dimashq province: Israeli warplanes carried out airstrikes on Juroud Sarghiya area in north western Rif Dimashq on borders between Syria and Lebanon, where explosions were heard in the area. However, no casualties were reported.

This comes in part of plans to cut supply routes of Hezbollah from Syrian to Lebanon.

SOHR documented 109 attacks in 2024: 90 airstrikes and 19 rocket attacks by ground forces, during which Israel targeted several positions in Syria, destroying nearly 193 targets, including buildings, weapons and ammunitions warehouses, headquarters, centres and vehicles.
