CAIRO, Nov 24 (Reuters) – An Israeli ‘air aggression’ on Syria’s central region killed two civilians and injured seven others, official media said on Wednesday.

“An Israeli air aggression targeted parts of the central region, and the air defences are responding,” it said.

Two civilians were killed, and one civilian and six soldiers were injured in the attack, Syrian state TV said.

The attack also resulted in material damage.

There was no immediate comment from Israeli officials.
