One dead, 18 wounded in Israeli strikes on Damascus: Syria health ministry

Syria's health ministry said a series of Israeli strikes targeting the army and defense ministry headquarters in Damascus on Wednesday killed one person and wounded another 18.

AFP correspondents said the strikes destroyed part of a four-storey building adjacent to the defense ministry, while the city's usually bustling Umayyad Square nearby was empty except for ambulances and military vehicles.
