(CNN) — A series of Israeli airstrikes targeting areas close to the Syrian city of Aleppo city have led to casualties among both civilians and military personnel early on Friday, according to the Syrian state news agency SANA.
Reports indicate that on Thursday, airstrikes believed to be conducted by Israel targeted a location near Damascus, targeting a site used by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of Iran, followed by attacks near Aleppo aimed at demolishing sites connected to the defense industry.
Israel has launched hundreds of air strikes on targets in Syria since the civil war began there in 2011, as it seeks to cut off Hezbollah supply routes to Lebanon.
Dozens of people have lost their lives and sustained injuries when Israeli military aircraft carried out a string of aerial assaults on targets near the northwestern Syrian city of Aleppo, according to Syrian officials.
A war monitor said Israeli air strikes on Syria's Aleppo province yesterday killed at least 42 including 36 Syrian soldiers
