For the first time since Russia began joint air patrols with Syria, Israel is attacking Damascus, firing missiles against multiple targets in the Syrian capital.
Explosions were reported and damage done. Details are still emerging, and its not yet clear there were any casualties from the strikes.
Syrian state media reported air defenses were activated and intercepted a number of the missiles. Again, exact targets are not being reported just yet.
Syria’s media reports are sparse, and that’s all there is. Israel, as is typical for them, did not comment at all on the attack. Russia, which has recently held talks with Israel, has similarly not commented yet.
This will get interesting.
All the attention cast on a “possible” Russian invasion of the Ukraine and not one word of condemnation ever goer against Israel, which seems to attack something every day! If Israel has “a right to self defense” then so does Russia!
Tom:
You are stating the facts, well said but… For the moment, Israel is the chosen child and like any spoiled child, they’ll push things too far, for as long as they can… But the hammer is going to come down somewhere… I am, very concerned about things with Russia getting out of control…
No doubt, no doubt…peace-donna
The US is obsessed with Sanctions and Israel is obsessed with strike on Syria…!
At some point in time wouldn’t a country be punished for continuous unprovoked attacks on a sovereign country? Especially one that seems to do one every fucking day?
You’ll get no argument from me!… Israel gets away with everything, so far… If any other country pulled this crap, we’d nuke them back into the stone age!
