In a rare announcement, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said on September 12 that it carried out two drone strikes against southern Syria targeting a Hezbollah fighter and another linked to Iran.
The first strike, which targeted the al-Quneitra area, killed Ahmed al-Jaber, a member of Hezbollah’s so-called Golan File unit, the military said in a statement.
It added that another strike, in the al-Rafeed area, targeted a “terrorist who advanced terror acts against the State of Israel, and acted with the cooperation and direction of Iran.”
Both Israeli strikes were reported by Syrian media. However, it was noted that a civilian was killed along with al-Jaber in al-Quneitra strike and that the alleged Iran-linked fighter targeted in al-Rafeed survived the strike although he was badly injured.
Israel has significantly escalated its attacks on Syria since the outbreak of the war in the Palestinian enclave of the Gaza Strip, targeting Syrian military sites as well as personnel of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Lebanese Hezbollah and other factions of the so-called Axis of Resistance. The IDF rarely claims responsibility for such attacks.
The deadly IDF drone strikes on southern Syria came just four days after reports of an unprecedented Israeli attack on a military research center close to the town of Masyaf in the country’s western region.
The attack, which allegedly included a commando helicopter raid, claimed the lives of 18 people, mostly of whom were civilians.
Since the start of the war on Gaza, IDF strikes on Syria have claimed the lives of dozens of people, including civilians. Still, the country has so far refrained from directly responding to avoid a dangerous confrontation with Israel.
