JERUSALEM: The Israeli military said today that it had acted against targets in Syria over the course of the week, just days after Syrian state media reported Israeli air strikes killed 16 people in western Syria and wounded dozens more.

“In southern Syria, the IDF targeted several terrorists who were advancing terror activities against Israel,” a statement from the military said today but did not give further detail.

The Israeli military rarely comments on allegations of its acts in Syria and declined to comment on a New York Times report that Israeli special forces raided a weapons manufacturing site near the Syria-Lebanon border on Sunday.

On Sunday, Syrian sate news agency Sana reported that Israel launched the strikes on “a number of military sites in the central region”, without elaborating on what was struck.
