Israeli strikes kill soldier, damage Aleppo airport: Syria state media

25 Sept 06:11 Key points summarised by AI

Israeli air strikes targeted Syria's Aleppo province, killing a soldier, wounding seven people, and putting Aleppo International Airport out of service.
The attacks caused severe damage to the airport and reportedly destroyed a munitions depot at the nearby Nayrab military airfield, also hitting Syrian air force factories used by pro-Iran fighters.
These strikes are part of Israel's ongoing campaign to prevent Iran from expanding its military presence in Syria, frequently targeting Iran-backed forces and Hezbollah.
This incident marks another instance where Israeli attacks have disabled Aleppo airport, following similar strikes earlier in March and previous actions against both Aleppo and Damascus airports.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
