More than 300 Israeli strikes on Syria since fall of Assad, reports say | BBC News

Israeli warplanes have reportedly carried out hundreds of airstrikes targeting military facilities across Syria, including on the capital, Damascus.

The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says it has documented more than 310 strikes by the IDF since the fall of the Assad regime on Sunday.

Israel says its actions are to prevent weapons falling "into the hands of extremists" as Syria transitions into a post-Assad era.

Meanwhile, rebels who have seized control of the country say they will hunt down officials who were involved in President Assad’s regime.
