Israeli airstrikes overnight on Monday targeted more Iranian-backed military sites inside of Syria near the city of Aleppo.

Many explosions could be seen in videos on social media.
According to initial reports on Monday evening, there were no casualties. On the contrary, on Tuesday, at least one source claimed that multiple Iranian proxies were killed in the strikes. Reports suggest that Iranian weapon facilities were one of the primary interests in last night’s strikes, as is often the case. The facilities were located inside of Syrian military posts.
