Several explosions heard over Syria’s coastal town Jabla, says state TV

Several explosions have been heard over the Syrian coastal town of Jabla, state TV reported on Saturday.

No further details were immediately available.

Regional intelligence sources say strikes by Israel on Syria are part of a shadow war approved by Washington and part of the anti-Iran policy that has undermined in the last two years Iran’s extensive military power without triggering a major increase in hostilities.

Israel has acknowledged conducting many raids inside Syria since the start of the civil war in 2011 where it sees Iran’s presence as a strategic threat.
