Israeli military says strikes near Damascus presidential palace

The Israeli military said Friday it had launched air strikes near the presidential palace in the Syrian capital, Damascus after warning it would intervene if Syrian authorities failed to protect the Druze minority.

Israeli "fighter jets struck adjacent to the area of the palace," the military said on Telegram following deadly sectarian clashes in Syria.
