damascus. Israel started an air campaign in Syria on Sunday, which continued on Monday. Israeli aircraft have bombed at least three major military targets in Syria, including dozens of helicopters and fighter jets, two Syrian security sources said. This is the biggest wave of airstrikes in Syria since Assad’s ouster.
Israel has carried out more than 250 airstrikes, targeting Syrian weapons stores. Israel fears that these dangerous weapons of the Assad regime may fall into the hands of extremists. Israeli infantry has also entered Syria. Israeli soldiers have reached the south-west area, about 25 kilometers from the Syrian capital Damascus.
Quoting a Syrian security source, it was said that Israeli soldiers have reached Katana. This area is about 10 km away from the Syrian area of Golan Heights. Israel launched more than 100 airstrikes on military targets in Syria on Monday, a Britain-based war observer told AFP on Monday. It also includes Baraja Scientific Research Centre. Western officials suspect the facility is linked to chemical weapons production in Damascus.
According to estimates, since Sunday, Israel has carried out about 250 air strikes on Syrian military structures. According to the Israeli outlet Ynet report, Western officials believe that if the attacks continue at the current pace, the Syrian Air Force will be almost destroyed within a few days. After this, rebel groups and any future Syrian government will not be an air threat to Israel.
