Israel has launched several missile strikes on the Syrian capital, Damascus. Syrian Arab News Agency – S A N A confirmed the information on Wednesday morning, citing a military source. There has been some damage.
There was no immediate word from Israeli officials on the attack. Israel also fired several missiles at Damascus last Saturday. However, the Syrian air defense system has repulsed these missiles.
On October 14, Israel launched an airstrike targeting the Iranian position in central Syria. Nine fighters allied with the Syrian government were killed.
A few days before the attack, Syria alleged that Israel had attacked the southern part of the country. Israel fears Iran’s growing regional influence and military presence in Syria.
The country has been carrying out repeated attacks on Syria for several years. However, there is not much acknowledgment of these operations by Israel.
Israel has been carrying out more attacks in Syria, usually at night. Israel has acknowledged the attack, which targeted Syrian bases, weapons, and various positions related to Iran’s military.
Hezbollah is fighting alongside Bashar al-Assad’s forces in Syria’s civil war. That is why Hezbollah’s position has been targeted several times.
