Israeli Army Attacks Military Facilities In Southern Syria

Defence Minister Yisrael Katz has confirmed the strikes.

The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) struck ‘military targets’ in southern Syria. In particular, weapons depots that posed a threat were attacked.

This is reported by The Times of Israel.

The military noted that over the past few hours, Israel struck military targets in southern Syria, which included command centres and numerous weapons facilities.

‘The presence of military assets in southern Syria poses a threat to the citizens of Israel. The IDF will continue to act to eliminate any threat to the citizens of the State of Israel,’ the statement said.

Israeli Defence Minister Yisrael Katz confirmed the strikes in southern Syria following reports of explosions in several areas south of Damascus. He warned that Israel ‘will not allow southern Syria to turn into southern Lebanon.’

The attacks came after several Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, demanded to demilitarise southern Syria in recent days and warned that Israel would not allow the Syrian army to advance south of Damascus.

‘We will not jeopardise the security of our citizens. Any attempt made by the forces of the Syrian regime and the country's terrorist organisations to gain a foothold in the security zone in southern Syria will be met with fire,’ Katz said.
