ANKARA (AA) - Three Iranian militia were killed on Sunday in an overnight airstrike by Israeli forces in Syria, Iranian media reported.

Tiyas airbase in western Homs district came under attack, Fars News Agency said on Monday.

The slain militia were identified as Ammar Mousavi, Akbar Zavar Jannati and Mehdi Lotfi Naysar.

The Syrian regime said the base was attacked at around 4.00 a.m. local time (0200GMT) and there were reports of casualties.
