An escalation is taking place in Syria with the sole aim of impeding the Syrian Arab Army’s (SAA) activities.
In the late hours of October 13th, a series of Israeli airstrikes hit the outskirts of the ancient Syrian city of Palmyra in the eastern countryside of Homs. A Syrian soldier and three pro-Iranian fighters were reportedly killed.
According to reports, the raid was launched from the southeastern area of al-Tanf, which is occupied by the US-led coalition and its proxies.
This is the second Israeli airstrike in Syria within a week. Previously, on October 9th Syrian air defenses intercepted an Israeli missile attack above the Homs countryside. As a result, six Syrian soldiers were wounded and some material damage was caused.
The Allies of Syria Operations Room, which commands Iranian-backed forces in Syria, has vowed to respond “very harshly”. It revealed that the Israeli airstrikes had destroyed several barracks and a service center of Iranian-backed forces.
Not too far from where these strikes hit, an unknown warplane, or potentially a drone struck an area controlled by the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).
The airstrikes may have been carried out by the US-led coalition, whose warplanes have hit ISIS hideouts in northeastern Syria in the past, or by Turkey who increased its threats to the SDF.
Israel has suddenly been moving much more actively than before, carrying out two airstrikes within one week, one of them originating from a US-occupied area in Syria.
Separately, it is not a far-fetched speculation that Tel Aviv’s “hand” is likely behind the sniper attack in nearby Lebanon’s capital of Beirut that took place on October 14th.
Violent clashes broke out in the city after snipers opened fire at a group of Hezbollah and Amal Movement’s supporters who were protesting in the area of Tayouneh against the ongoing investigation into the 2020 Beirut port explosion.
A total of six people, all supporters of Hezbollah and Amal, were killed in the clashes. One of the victims was a civilian woman, a mother of five.
Hezbollah and Amal officially accused the far-right Lebanese Forces party of orchestrating the deadly attack on the protesters. Samir Geagea, Lebanese Forces leader, denied the accusations.
Still, security sources told the Hezbollah-affiliated al-Manar TV that an entire armed cell of the Lebanese Forces that took part in the initial attack were apprehended by the Lebanese Army.
Both the events in Syria and Lebanon are beneficial to Israel, as they become more assertive in targeting Iran’s interests and influence in the Middle East.
Israel, however, is only one part of a new axis that is being formed between itself, Azerbaijan, Turkey and the United States (and Great Britain to some extent). Each participant brings something to the table, and has its own reasons to exert effort towards curbing Iran’s influence.
Tehran is Tel Aviv’s arch-nemesis. Turkey and Azerbaijan dream of a “Turkic World”, which is directly impeded by Iran.
As a result, the events in Syria, Lebanon, and the mobilization of pro-Turkish forces in Idlib are simply a step in a grander strategy.
Israel’s aim is to inflict as much damage on the “Iranian regime” as it can before, ultimately, destroying it.
It’s short to medium-term goals are to secure the Golan Heights, ensure that it has complete control over the Palestinian territories and the consolidation of its grip.
Even the best laid plans can go astray.
THE ILLEGAL ZIONIST’S ENTITY DEATH IS VERY NEAR …
The fake Israel Is doom!!
The shitraelians are dreaming with “kurdistan”, Iranian defeat etc.
These idiotic zionist inbred degenerates are paranoid fools used to US ponzi scheme dollars. What happens when the ameroclowns are finished? The zionist turd goes down the drain.
Come and try, let’s see who ends up in the sewer you rat.
You’re pretends to be me! Shame on you. You are not even jew. Be gone with you.
inbred_diaperhead always gets flushed even in squatter settler land of degenerates.
As long as the anti-jew infestation is willing to support the homosexual Sid Loder’s creation of a fundamentally fictious world view reality, – don’t expect any immediate problum solving.
I could fix the situation with the help of Brother Erdogan, true he might be off target in Syrian (SAA) objectivity but with regard to Libya he’s spot on.
Only l Jesus Christ can fix the situation, actually last time i was on Earth l wasn’t Jesus at all, that’s just a story Paul and Josephus made up l was brother James as evidenced in the Dead Sea Scrolls, but Allah (swt) got His way anyhow, it’ll be the same again if I can’t be what l am.
God is great swt.
Could you just stay silent. Your useless speculations have zero weight.
Jesus Christ is a fiction created by the Roman Empire to pacify fools like you.
Judaism is another fiction created by the Roman Empire for the same purpose.
Interesting to hear this. This is a little known fact, known to just a small percentage of humanity. The people at the top of the Pyramid invented this creed to subdue humanity into accepting temporal power structures. Like “give to Caesar what is of Caesar…” and all that other mental manipulation. I lived in Rome for nearly 20 years and worked 50 metres from the Vatican walls, so I got to understand a thing during my sojourn there. It is the Vatican, in fact, the extension of the Roman Empire that never really collapsed, which continues its power projection throught the Western world and beyond. All you need to do is look at Washington DC and the occult and not too occult signs are everywhere.
Just wondering what frequency of zionist attacks it would take before Syria & allies legitimately defend themselves … perhaps more than one a day?
TEP.
@southfront I admire the work you do on global military confrontation but to say that is isn’t speculation that Israel has a hand in the Lebanese shoot out is fully speculation until you have some hard evidence that Israel was involved with the Lebanese military on this matter. We all know Israel does most of it’s dirty work covertly just please don’t lower yourself until evidence is found. We also know that there is two military powers in Lebanon both funded and armed by outside powers but “democratically” the “elected”government should be held accountable.
