Four fatalities and several injuries occurred on Saturday when an Iranian missile hit a building in Sweida, a city in southern Syria, as reported by the state news agency SANA. Additional missile debris was found in Quneitra and the Yarmouk Basin in Daraa province, corroborated by Reuters witnesses and resident-shared videos.
On the same day, the sounds of warplanes echoed frequently throughout Syria’s skies. This follows an announcement of a military operation against Iran by the United States and Israel. Witnesses, including a Reuters correspondent, observed a large number of interceptor missiles flying over Damascus.
The situation reflects heightened tensions in the region, presenting growing concerns over potential escalation in a longstanding conflict zone.
