Israel bombs vehicle of Hezbollah commander in Syria

May 18. (EUROPA PRESS) –

This Saturday, an Israeli drone bombed a vehicle that was traveling on the road that connects Damascus with Beirut and in which a Hezbollah commander and his escort were traveling, with no casualties reported for the moment.

The vehicle was attacked in the province of Damascus and was completely burned, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an organization based in London but with a wide network of informants within Syria.

The Observatory has recorded 39 Israeli attacks so far this year, including 27 airstrikes and twelve ground-launched rocket attacks, most against military infrastructure. In total they have caused the death of 188 people, twelve of them civilians.
