Damascus [Syria], August 29: Israel has hit 64 military targets in Syria by far this year, killing 45 servicemen and pro-government fighters in the bordering country, a war monitor reported on Sunday.
Meanwhile, 57 others were injured in the 21 airstrikes and rocket attacks by Israel, said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
The Britain-based watchdog group said Israel has intensified its missile strikes on military sites in Syria since 2018 under the pretext of targeting pro-Iran militias.
In the latest attack on Aug. 25, one military officer was killed and 14 civilians injured in the attack targetting a weapons depot allegedly operated by pro-Iran militias in the city of Masyaf in central Syria.
