Regional media reported on Saturday, December 14, that Israel carried out airstrikes on military positions in Syria’s Sweida and Aleppo regions. According to these reports, the Israeli airstrikes targeted military positions of the Syrian army in the southern part of Syria, particularly in Sweida.
The regional media also reported that Israel bombed a scientific research center and military industries in the outskirts of Aleppo. This facility is believed to be associated with the development of military technology.
These airstrikes are part of Israel’s ongoing efforts to weaken the military infrastructure of groups it considers hostile, including those linked to Iran. The region has been a focal point of tensions between Israel and Iran, with both countries involved in the ongoing Syrian civil war.
Israeli officials have consistently stated that they will continue to target military facilities in Syria that could potentially be used by Iranian-backed groups to establish a foothold. These efforts aim to limit the influence of Iran in Syria, which Israel perceives as a national security threat.
While these airstrikes have been confirmed by local sources, the rebel forces led Syria has not yet issued a detailed statement regarding the damages or casualties caused by the attacks.
The recent escalation is a continuation of the frequent Israeli airstrikes in Syria over the past few days, reflecting the heightened military activity in the region. These actions have raised concerns about the possibility of further escalation and the growing tension between regional powers.
As Israel continues to target military facilities in Syria, the implications for regional security remain significant. With tensions rising, there is a need for stronger diplomatic engagement and a multilateral approach to de-escalate the situation, prevent further violence, and address the underlying geopolitical issues in the region.
