The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights announced Saturday that Israel launched new air raids near Masyaf city in Hama province—at a location where Iran’s Revolutionary Guards and Hezbollah have established a presence.
“There are warehouses, research centers for upgrading missiles and drones. However, no casualties have been reported yet,” the monitoring group said in a statement, according to Al Jazeera.
The report said the latest strike was the eighth attack by Tel Aviv on Syrian targets since the start of the year. (See “ISRAELI AIRSTRIKES KILL 3 SOLDIERS IN SYRIA” and “ISRAEL KEEPS LAUNCHING MISSILES INTO SYRIA. WILL WAR ESCALATE?”)
Israel sees proxy forces in Syria as an existential threat because it is supported by Iran, its major military threat.
Despite the illegality of attacking the nation, Israel has admitted to launching hundreds of airstrikes into Syria that target Iranian troops, military targets and allied groups such as Hezbollah.
TRENDPOST: Sarah Abdallah, a geopolitical commentator, tweeted, “Israel just dropped bombs on Syria again, in yet another unprovoked aggression. Where are the calls for sanctions?”
We also note Israel’s continued military strikes against Syria that are supported by Washington and never condemned by the media… while it attacks those who are not considered America’s “allies.”
Indeed, if Syria attacked Israel, it would be a call for all-out war against the nation.
