JERUSALEM/AMMAN (Reuters) - Israel launched air raids against what it called a wide range of Syrian and Iranian targets in Syria on Wednesday, sending a signal that it will pursue its policy of striking across the border despite U.S. President Donald Trump's election defeat.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a war monitor, said at least 10 people were killed. Syria's state news agency reported three military personnel killed and one wounded.
