DAMASCUS: An Israeli strike killed a man in southern Syria, state media reported Tuesday, with Damascus condemning the attack as a “flagrant violation” of international law.
Israel has carried out hundreds of strikes in Syria since an Islamist-led alliance toppled longtime ruler Bashar Assad in December.
It has also opened talks with the interim authorities in Damascus.
“A young man was killed in an Israeli strike on a home in the village of Taranja,” on the formerly Syria-controlled side of the armistice line on the Golan Heights, the official SANA news agency reported.
Syria condemned “the recent Israeli attacks on its territory, which resulted in the martyrdom of a young man,” the foreign ministry said.
