Damascus: Two Lebanese nationals, including Hassan Jafar Qasir, the son-in-law of late Hezbollah leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, were killed in an Israeli airstrike on a residence in the Mazzeh Western Villas neighbourhood of Damascus on Wednesday, a war monitor reported.
The Israeli strike, which hit the first floor of a three-story building frequented by Hezbollah and Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps leaders, left three people dead, including two non-Syrians, and injured at least four others whose identities remain unknown, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
Israel killed Nasrallah in a powerful airstrike in the Lebanese capital Beirut on Sept. 27.
Wednesday's attack marks the second Israeli airstrike in the area this week.
On Tuesday morning, Israel targeted a site approximately 500 meters from Wednesday's strike, killing three people, including a journalist, and injuring nine others.
