Hezbollah sez Israeli warplanes struck its arms convoy in Syria

[IsraelTimes] Lebanese media reports 4 trucks hit, no injuries in attack near Maarba north of Damascus; IDF declines to comment

The Shiite terror group Hezbollah said Israeli Air Force warplanes struck a convoy of four trucks carrying weapons near Maarba, north of Damascus, the Lebanese website Mulhak reported Thursday.

No one was killed in the Wednesday night air strike, according to the report.

An IDF spokesperson said Thursday night that the army "will not comment" on the reports of a strike in Syria.

Syrian opposition websites said that the IAF "the Israeli air force carried out a number of strikes against Hezbollah positions close to the Syria-Leb border," Israel National News reported.

"According to reports from the field, the air strike was carried out as a Hezbollah convoy departed from the area, apparently [further] into Leb," INN quoted the opposition as saying.

Since the start of the Syrian civil war five years ago, a number of Arclight airstrikes in Syria or close to the border with Leb have been attributed to Israel.

#2  Usually the IDF spokesmen laugh out loud and slap their knees at questions like this. Such an obvious answer to an obvious question is really a great source of humor.
