7 people, including children and women, were killed in an Israeli aerial assault that struck a dwellings in the Mezzah region in Damascus. On Tuesday, Israel launched several missiles at a residential apartment in Damascus' heavily populated Mezzah district. The source added that efforts are underway to rescue people beneath the rubble. Israel has been committing war crimes against the Sovereign states for a long time. On September 1, 2024, Israel carried out direct strikes on the Iranian consulate building in Damascus, killing a large number of innocents, including diplomats and military generals, according to Syrian Foreign Minister Faisal Mekdad, who was seen visiting the site alongside Syria's Interior Minister. Scores of Syrians, Iranians and Lebanese have been killed as a result of Israel's airstrikes against Syria and Lebanon since 2011.
Afghanistan, (Daily Post). Insurgents attacked two vans in the northern Afghan city of Mazar-e-Sharif on Thursday, killing at least nine people. "The bombs were installed inside the vans; as a result of those blasts, nine people were killed and 13 were injured," Mohammad Asif Waziri, the commander of Mazar-e-Sharif, said. The local Shi'ite community operated and used the public transportation vans, he added. The Shiite Muslim Hazara community, a minority Muslim sect in Afghanistan, is often attacked by armed groups, including the Islamic State. The Taliban, who seized power following NATO's withdrawal, claimed earlier this week that they had eliminated the majority of the Islamic State's presence in Afghanistan. Despite the Taliban claims, attacks on Shia Muslims continue in many parts of the country.
