Israeli air forces have carried out dozens of attacks targeting military and ammunition sites across Syria, as the de facto Syrian leader warned against the incursion but added that his country does not want a new conflict.

“More than 60 Israeli air strikes took place over the last 12 hours,” Al Jazeera’s Resul Serdar, reporting from the Syrian capital, Damascus, said, adding that Israel has conducted about 800 air raids across Syria since the ouster of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad last week.
