Israel said to strike Iran-backed militia base in southern Syria

[IsraelTimes] Single missile fired at village near Golan Heights border, Syrian state media says midnight strike his school building, no reports of casualties.

Syrian state media said Israel fired a missile early Wednesday at a site in the Quneitra province in southern Syria, near the border with Israel’s Golan Heights.

There were no immediate reports of casualties.

The Britannia-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights — a pro-opposition group with unclear funding sources — said the strike hit a base for pro-Iran militias, adding that Israel was "likely" responsible.

Reports of the strike came two weeks after Israeli soldiers reportedly destroyed two Syrian military posts in the demilitarized zone separating the two countries in a rare cross-border raid.

That raid was said to be a warning to Syrian Hereditary President-for-Life Bashir Pencilneck al-Assad
