CAIRO/DAMASCUS (Sputnik) - One person was killed and three injured in an Israeli strike on a residential building in the Syrian capital Damascus, the director of Al Mouwasat Hospital in Damascus, Imam Amin, said on Saturday.
"One dead and three injured, including a woman, were admitted [to the hospital] as a result of an Israeli strike on a residential house," Amin was quoted by Syrian newspaper Al Watan as saying.
Two person killed by airstrike were information officers of Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, according to information, obtained by AlMayadeen.
The building hit by the strike consisted of four floors and was completely destroyed by the strike, Syrian media reported.
