Haaretz:

The Israeli Army said Wednesday it attacked dozens of targets in Syria belonging to Iran's Quds Force and Bashar Assad's army.

"The attack was carried out in response to the launching of rockets by an Iranian force from Syria's territory into Israel, intending to strike Israeli territory," read the IDF statement, referring to a barrage of rockets launched toward Israel's Golan on Tuesday.

"We showed the Iranians we have the capabilities to react forcefully," said a senior Israeli defense official on Wednesday morning. "We know they have casualties and probably also fatalities."

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition activist group with a network of activists across Syria, said the strikes killed 11 people, including seven non-Syrians who are most likely Iranian.

The figures come from Rami Abdurrahman, who heads the Britain-based war monitoring group. The Observatory says the Israeli airstrikes targeted arms depots belonging to Iran’s Quds Force in the Damascus suburbs of Kisweh and Qudsaya.

Abdurrahman added that several other areas were targeted in Wednesday’s strikes, including the Mazzeh airbase in western Damascus where air defense units are stationed.
