Israel struck a military outpost near Quneitra late Tuesday night. Syrian media reported that two missiles were fired in the strike “west of the town of Hadr in the northern Quneitra countryside.”

According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, the strike targeted the post, which belonged to Iranian-backed militias, including the Lebanese Shi’ite terrorist group Hezbollah, near the Druze town of Hadr.

The IDF doesn’t comment on foreign reports. Israel has repeatedly warned that it would not tolerate Tehran’s efforts to establish a permanent military presence on the Syrian Golan and has admitted to hundreds of strikes against targets belonging to Iran and its proxy Hezbollah.
