Israeli Airstrikes Target Residence of Palestinian Islamic Jihad Leader in Damascus
Israeli fighter jets conducted airstrikes on March 13, 2025, targeting an empty residence in Damascus linked to Palestinian Islamic Jihad leader Ziad al-Nakhaleh. No casualties were reported, as the property had been unoccupied for years.
On March 13, 2025, Israeli fighter jets executed a series of airstrikes in southern Syria, particularly targeting areas in the capital, Damascus. These strikes reportedly aimed at the outskirts of the city, specifically at the residence attributed to Ziad al-Nakhaleh, a leader of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
According to an Islamic Jihad representative, Ismail Sindak, the targeted apartment has remained vacant for years, and he affirmed that Nakhaleh is not currently present in Syria. When questioned about casualties resulting from the airstrikes, Sindak indicated that “the house was empty,” implying that no individuals were harmed in the attack.
In conclusion, the airstrikes carried out by Israeli jets in Damascus on March 13, 2025, appear to have been aimed at a vacant location that was linked to Ziad al-Nakhaleh. The lack of casualties suggests that the operation did not achieve its intended objective of impacting its target directly.
