Israel Launches One of the LARGEST Attacks On Syria In History

Israel Launches One of the LARGEST Attacks On Syria In History

Israel has launched what is being dubbed “one of the largest” attacks on Syria in history.  The large-scale attack on targets in Syria using warplanes pounded at least three airports and other infrastructure.

This attack followed the demise of former President Bashar Assad’s government, according to several media reports. Assad fled to Russia as the current ruling class fell to rebel forces.

Israeli tanks have reportedly broken out of the buffer zone adjacent to the illegally occupied Golan Heights, on the Syrian border, and moved towards Damascus, although West Jerusalem has denied the claim. An unnamed Israeli security source told Israeli Army Radio that “more than 250 military targets were attacked in Syria,” describing the assault as “one of the largest attack operations in the history of… [the] air force.”

The targets included “bases of Assad army, dozens of fighter jets, dozens of surface-to-air missile systems, production sites, and warehouses… and surface-to-surface missiles.”

According to several local media outlets, Israeli tanks had been approaching the Syrian capital. However, the Israeli military has denied that claim. A defense official told RT that “the reports circulating in the media about the alleged advancement of Israeli tanks towards Damascus are false,” adding that “IDF troops are stationed within the buffer zone, as stated in the past.”

The Jewish state’s military moved to capture the buffer zone established as part of the 1974 disengagement agreement not far from Israeli-occupied Golan Heights. Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar insisted that the incursion is a “temporary step” aimed solely at ensuring security.

However, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel intends to retain total control over the Golan Heights, which it has illegally occupied since the 1967 Six-Day War, “forever,” calling the area “an inseparable part” of his country. –RT

It is possible that this escalation will cause a wider war, but so far, the attacks have been contained in the Middle East.
