A Syrian state television presenter was allegedly killed in an Israeli strike on the country's capital Damascus, Syrian state television reported early on Tuesday without providing further details.
Syrian air defenses intercepted "hostile targets" over the vicinity of Damascus three times in a row in one night, following explosions that were heard in the capital, state media added.
When asked about the reported attack, the Israeli military said it does not comment on foreign media reports.
Israel has been carrying out strikes against Iran-linked terrorist targets in Syria for years but has ramped up such raids since last year's Oct. 7 attack by Palestinian terrorist group Hamas on Israeli territory.
