Israel Strikes Syria’s Damascus Hour After Attack On Aleppo (Video)

A series of Israeli strikes hit the southeastern outskirts of the Syrian capital, Damascus, late on August 31, just a hour after a similar attack on the northern city of Aleppo.

“At approximately 18:21 this evening, the Israeli enemy carried out an aerial aggression with a number of missiles from the direction of Lake Tiberias in the north region of occupied Palestine, targeting some points southeast of the city of Damascus,” a military official said in a statement to the state-run Syrian Arab News Agency.

The unnamed official added that Syrian air defenses “confronted the aggression’s missiles, shutting down some of them,” acknowledging that “the aggression led to some material losses.”

Reports in the Arab media claimed that the strikes targeted one of the two main runways of Damascus International Airport. This is yet to be confirmed, however.

The strikes took place just an hour after an aerial attack that targeted Aleppo International Airport in northern Syria. According to unverified reports, the attack, which was launched from the Eastern Mediterranean, placed the airport out of service. Still, no casualties were reported

The last Israeli attack on Damascus International Airport was last June. The attack placed the airport out of service for more than two weeks. On the other hand, the last attack on Aleppo International Airport was all the way back in July of 2018.

Recently, Israel escalated its attacks on Syria under the pretext of preventing Iranian forces from establishing a permanent presence in the country and shipping advanced weapons to Hezbollah in Lebanon. None of these objectives have been achieved as of yet.

And Russia silence. At least, Putin should allowed Syria use the S-300, but I think Putin has some kind of deal with Israelis

Zionists are entrenched in Russia, Ukraine and most of the western world as well as are taking advantage of the war in Ukraine where Russia is bogged down. The S-300 have been removed from Syria and Iran is too weak to do anything. Zionists want a Balkanized Syria and control over all of the fertile Golan Heights. The Arabs like the Slavs are divided and mostly collude with Zionists. But sooner or later the Zionists will overplay their hand.

Iran isn’t too weak, they just don’t want to Syria put through a whole new war. Syria gets air striked if they activate their air defence, imagine what will happen if they actually try and shoot a Jet down. It’s unfortunate we have to take shit, but hopefully soon it’ll change. It’s whatever man, my country took shit for long time from Israel and her allies before we created Hezbollah and now we’re very powerful, same will happen in Syria.

Ashok Varma

I did not read Retired Troll’s comment as it was deleted by censors, but assume it was about lack of retaliation for Zionist attacks. Most of the world is of the same opinion, that Zionists will keep targeting Syria as long as there is no cost. It is the age old adage, who dares wins.

Jnoub

You’re right and I agree, but I guess Syria will have to take shit until they hit hard

So… When will Putin as the “guest” of Syria tell the UN that an attack on Syria and Iran is an attack on the Russian Federation?… 8 years and still “crickets”!…

Guess ol’ Pootie-Poot aka 0$trich legs doesn’t want to pi$$ off his oligarch Tribe friends with beach homes in I$rael!…

So-called Israel struts on western taxpayers dollars and is now hitting civilian airports to destroy Syrian infrastructure. It is working with Turkey and Ukraine as well. A lot of NATO weapons have been diverted to the Zionists. Russia is now being bled in Ukraine and had to withdraw the air defences and most of the forces. It is now up to Iran and Hezbollah to put up resistance, which is doubtful as Iran is playing all sides too. Syria is paying the price for being a global punching bag and regional rivalries.

Jnoub

Iran and Hezbollah play it differently. They won’t open this front until they have no choice. Hezbollah has no choice but to attack Israel if they take our gas, and then from then Syrian Air Force will shit on Israel. Declaring Jihad is unliked in Islam unless it can be avoided because of the innocent people who can die. ISIS have made jihad look like terrorism but in reality it’s not

James

Jews always controlled Russia, dating back to the USSR and Bolshevik Jews. Putin is now in a real quandary as NATO is now baying for Russian blood. Syria is pretty much on its own.

Matt

We need a White Hat in Russia that won’t play games anymore. And I don’t see it coming from Putin. We need new leadership in the Russian Federation that will make MIR the credit system and envy of the World that will include opening their commodity exchanges to the Western World telling them -park your precious metal “in Mother Russia” and you will be receiving 5 times the price that the CBs in America/UK and EU are fixing it at!… If the Russian banks were to do that tomorrow I guarantee the man and woman on the street in Western Europe would be moving it to Russian banks… As well as decoupling from OPEC. Putin is a closet Zi0ni$t. And he proves it every day with his “two-faces” in dealing with I$rael and Turkey at the expense of Syria and Ukraine while he still continues deals with $atan that made Russia’s misery possible since 1992 – https://southfront.org/america-imported-over-6-billion-in-goods-from-russia-since-ukraine-invasion/!?…

SF is again censoring every rational comment. I agree, Russia is too corrupt and Putin totally misread NATO and got involved in a losing conflict with an unprepared Russian military. US will bleed Russia to death with Slavic fratricide. There are no Jews dying either in Ukraine of Syria. Ukraine is now a second Israel in the heart of Europe.

RAKONI

You are delusional mate !! Nato misread Russia terribly by thinking they can kill Russia by waging a Proxy war with Russia using Ukraine as a meet fodder !! US is bleeding way more and its gonna get a lot worse !! The whole collective West is in deep shit and on verge of collapse while Russia has been setting record profits !!

Matt

Agree. But unfortunately you and James are both Right!…

We showed Russians what we can do to them in Ukraine. We didn’t sell our brothers Iron Dome but we stayed to true in arms and on the ground expertise. We fought for the promised land. One mistake and kiss yours goodbye 🦾🇮🇱

James

Look deeper, Russian military performance is at Arab level. They were totally unprepared and their airforce is a joke.

Matt

You’re certainly right about SF on censorship. I can’t even give you an up vote.

It is sad that SF is on the backfoot with heavy censorship, just like Russia lost credibility by losing to Ukraine a country 7 times smaller in population and military. The war has also exposed the pathetic state of Russian military, especially the airforce and lack of ability to field modern weapons. There is no point in trying to censor constructive comments.

Karl Pomeroy

I challenge you to produce a single example of the “pathetic state of the Russian military”.

James

For 7 months Russia is largely bogged down as NATO arms Ukraine. Russian airforce is missing in action and the small force is barely capable of hanging on to Don Bas, let alone move on to Kiev. Russia failed to take out the command centers and even disrupt transportation routes. If you can provide some successful examples, I am more than happy to accept them. Keep in mind that Ukraine is much smaller than Russia.

Braveheart

Odessa before Kiev. Once Ukraine is landlocked, Kiev is next to be liberated and western Ukraine will be given to Poland. After that, Ukraine won’t exist.

USraelChildKillers

They were camping outside Kiev like Peter around his house. They took Kherson, Mariupol, and many other cities, isn’t that a great example of the Russian success? Or destroying the so called counter offensive by the ukrotards, isn’t that a success. They control the biggest nuclear power plant in Europe and Nato inspectors need Rusia permission to access it, isn’t that successful? You gender confused parasite do not have a clue about what to say. Rusia is winning this war and will win again🏆 ✌️

CNN reports that US and UK officers are running the Kiev counterattack and US media is openly cheering for more Russian dead. It is quite appalling.

US war-gamed with Ukraine ahead of counteroffensive and encouraged more robust attacks on Russian border cities and Crimea.

Peppe il Sicario

He can’t and won’t ’cause he’s a low-grade hasbara troll. The US and NATOstan wouldn’t have dared launch an attack against the Russians directly since they would have been annihilated by the Russian AF in no time. No mercy would have been shed on any of them, unlike the Ukranians who are a brother people contrary to what the Kiev Kike says. Nato needs proxy armies ’cause alone they can’t do shit. Their losses in manpower would be way too high for at-home public opinion. Afghanistan and Iraq being the most recent examples, but Vietnam even further back in time. The truth is that Americant soldiers stayed in their cozy little fire-bases and never ventured out to take on the Taliban, Vietcong, Iraqi resistance fighters etc. That’s why they fell so quickly in Saigon like in Kabul. The Russians, on the other hand, left Afghanistan with dignity and honor.

It might be to your advantage if you would read more about what is going on in Ukraine and not from Western news sources.

James

I am a supporter of Russia, but not a mindless cheerleader for a stalled campaign. If you assume that Ukrainians are duds and idiots and at the behest of their NATO and Jew masters to manipulate them (and the entire male population can be dominated this way), then Jews and NATO are smart enough to do this. May be Russia led by a former junior KGB guy should have had some strategy too instead of going in like Qaddafi or Saddam would have: go in brute force and limited military to be then in stalemate. Russia was not a well armed as assumed in the west. It’s airforce compared to western militaries is obsolete and incapable of high sortie rate. Even Russian media concedes that Ukraine is still able to fly warplanes and attack Russians. The biggest disappointment are Russian airdefence systems.

Russia pop 146 milion

Ucraine pop 43 milion

Army size before 24 feb:

RF 1.2 mil

Ukr 0.6 mil

That îs the data I know.

Russian soldiers in Ukraine are a small fraction of the Russian army.

You little Jews bark a lot, since no one has taken you on since the drubbing at Hezbollah hands in 2006. Russia is your main protector, but you are still backstabbing them in Ukraine. and any chance you get.

Iran is weak and the mullahs are only interested in hanging on to power. The Zionists have been killing Iranians in Iran, Iraq and Syria for over two decades now and no reprisal. Russia is pretty much out of the Syrian equation now and has withdrawn even the S-300 to redeploy as ground attack missiles. Russia was totally unprepared for Ukraine conflict. Putin made a bad move.

Have you been sniffing cocaine with Zelensky again? Just curious, as it might explain the idiocy of your comments.

pappa gone

West tactics, false flags, proxi wars, exploiting of sovereign resources of many nations, terrorism and all other crimes are starting to end soon….. after west wealth is finished thanks to their failed governments (at the orders of infamous western oligarcs). finally World will start to became better

What’s the surest way to start a month-long street party in Gaza? Hypersonic missile attacks on every NAZI airbase in Israhell…wipe out their airforce completely. Of course if you really want to denazify the world, nuke Switzerland… Ground zero… The bank of international settlements. That would prolly lead to month long street parties across all bankster occupied G20 countries.
