Overnight, Israeli helicopters attacked military targets in southern Syria’s Quneitra area, causing “material damage” but seemingly no casualties. Israeli officials claimed this was retaliation for a “violation of Israeli sovereignty.”
The “violation” saw Israeli forces killing four Syrians they accused of planting explosives in the occupied Golan Heights. Internationally, Golan is considered part of Syria, though Israel has annexed it and insists they will keep it.
Israel’s Army says they hold Syria fully responsible for not only what they did, but also for the Israeli attacks that followed. Again, there is no report of further casualties from the Israeli helicopter strikes, but Syrian air defenses were activated.
Israeli attacks in Quneitra were common when rebels were active in the area, but more recently Israeli attacks on Syria mostly just target Iran. This means more attacks are likely at any time, though they also tend to have limited impact.
Not only that. Israel did threatened to attack Lebanon infrastructure just 4 days ago. Yesterday it happened but given the high number of causalities, don’t expect those vile squatters to admit it.
“violation of Israeli sovereignty ”
Israel is illegally in the Golan Heights. They are liars and murderers . When their sins come home to roost their own God will punish them.
But, but the Don said it was theirs. And they are God’s chosen people. So if the Don and the God are both good with it, how can they be in the wrong?
Syria attacked Israel in 1948, 1967 & 1973 & still refuses to sign a peace treaty. Israel needs to prevent Syria from acquiring weapons to use in Syria’s next attack against Israel.
So the Don didn’t say it was theirs? And they aren’t the God’s chosen people? Or was your response just standard hasbara trolling material?
Israel targets sand dunes—fake news….important military installations in Syria r under ground…amerikans believed they were destroying Serb military vehicle and tanks when the Clinton regime bombed the Chinese embassy in Beograd…they were cardboard and tin foil…today Syrian forces use Russian inflatable tank, etc decoys…Israel must pretend they destroy military targets to justify the 3.8 billion$ they receive from US each year
They are just practicing. It is like spring training. They buy back a few of our top of the line bunker busting bombs with that money we give them so those important Syrian underground military installations that we know exactly where they are will be turned into ground fodder if needed be. Syria threw what little money they have on an outdated Soviet missile defense system that was obsolete 20 years ago.
Indeed Russia gave, not sold, a large roll of Syrian currency is worth about 1 US roll of toilet paper out of Syria, its old and obsolete S300 missle defense system but kept their worlds beast S 400 to protect only own butts in Syria.
The S 300 in Syria is a shoot and scoot defense system; you shoot and then scoot like hell out of there before a po’d Israeli blows you away.
Upon IuS soil its military have live fire practices; where ammo bombs and missles are real the targets are dummies or paper.
But in TODAYS middle East, Central Asia , and Africa, US/NATO/Israel military live fire exercizes means real bullets bombs and missle. Upon “live” mostly defenseless unarmed targets.
For any and all practical Syra is defenseless against any form of Israel/US led military attacks, just as are all its allies, Iran, Irag, Lebanons Hez and Russia who early on conceded Right of US to F over parts of Syria.
Turkey joined the turkey shoot. With Russian permission after seeing how. In actuality weak and worthless was Assads military, who dare not fart without asking Russian military for permission.
