Loud explosions were heard overnight in central Israel and the coastal plain, with residents of Ramat Gan, Tel Aviv, Lod, Rehovot, and Modi'in reporting booms.

Syrian air defenses were activated overnight between Thursday and Friday following alleged Israeli airstrikes near Damascus, the Syrian news agency SANA reported.

A Syrian military official told SANA that at approximately 1:26 a.m. Friday, Israel carried out strikes from the southeast of Beirut toward Damascus. The official said that Syrian air defenses had intercepted most of the missiles fired, and added that the strikes had caused damage and casualties.

The Syrian Human Rights Observatory reported loud explosions near Damascus, and another Syrian news outlet, identified with forces that oppose Syrian President Bashar Assad, reported that Israel had carried out strikes on sites belonging to the Syrian regime and pro-Iranian militias located to the northwest of the city.

The Observatory also said that the strikes had targeted sites used by the Syrian regime and Iranian militias to develop weapons.
