Two waves of Israeli strikes have hit Syria’s southern region, reportedly targeting an air defense base and a radar station.
Citing a Syrian military source, the state-run Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) reported late on December 28 that strikes launched from the direction of the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights had targeted several positions it did not identify in the southern region.
“Our air defenses confronted the [Israeli] aggressors’ missiles and downed some of them with only material losses,” the Syrianmilitary source said.
Later, a Syrian military source was quoted by the SANA as saying Israel staged another round of strikes early on December 28 near the capital, Damascus, but gave no details.
A Syrian military intelligence source and another regional security official familiar with the matter told Reuters that the Israeli strikes targeted a Syrian air defense base and a radar station in the Tell al-Sahn area in the southeastern countryside of Suwayda.
Israel escalated its attacks on Syria significantly since the outbreak of the war with the Hamas Movement and other Palestinian armed factions in the Gaza Strip.
Earlier this week, a senior commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Brigade General Seyed Razi Mousavi, was killed when a strike attributed to Israel hit his home in the town of Set Zaynab to the south of Damascus. Tehran vowed that it will respond to the assassination.
Israel has carried out hundreds of strikes against Syria in recent years, often targeting Hezbollah and other Iranian-backed forces, but it rarely acknowledges or discusses the operations. The war-torn country has largely refrained from responding to Israel’s repeated attacks in an attempt to avoid more escalation.
Several reports from earlier this year alleged that the country was working with Iran to improve its air defenses in order to stop Israel’s repeated attacks.
syria must make the khazar entity pay the price of their daily terror. russia cannot afford to tolerate the zionazi$ simply because of the one million plus “russian” fake jews squatting in apartheid, occupied palestine. russia needs to defend its ally, syria against the chosenite beast. otherwise russia will be despised by muslims in the russian federation itself. israel is the weakest link in the anglozionazi triumvirate of evil and begging to be destroyed.
don’t worry, fighter in meddle east know everything, after getting usa forces out of the meddle east they will tell the russian to leave , these people want a meddle east with no super power military base in it!
no doubt syria was looking to russia, but has concluded that iran is a more reliable ally..
awesome, good job, israel! keep barbecuing the terrorists! 😀 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
the israeli colonists carry on their friendly integration into the region. with such violent behaviour to palestinians and their neighbours, how do the israelis expect this ends? 70 ad and 1187 ad again?
our globalists are recreating this planet. so we wipe each other out to please them. as always. look in the us. we give guns to the migrants, and they come for our stuff. you won’t see a banker do some kind of work.
the bankers need a bigger israel for their plan. so there is a lot more to come. this is a technical operation. so better don’t stand in the way. (or hit them where it hurts)
it is time to kick out the russians. jew is always a jew.
