Post-Assad Israeli warplanes target Syrian facilities in over 310 airstrikes

Hindustan Times  

Israeli warplanes have conducted extensive airstrikes across Syria, targeting various military facilities following the collapse of the Assad regime over the weekend. Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar cited, “That's why we attack strategic weapons systems like, for example, remaining chemical weapons or long-range missiles and rockets.” These operations have focused on Syrian Army sites, including weapons depots, ammunition stockpiles, airports, naval bases, and research facilities. IDF denies reports of tanks near Damascus Israel’s strikes follow the takeover of Damascus by Syrian rebel forces led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, an Islamist opposition group. A spokesperson for IDF, however, told the BBC that reports of tanks near Damascus were “false” and “IDF troops are stationed within the buffer zone, as stated in the past.” On Monday, the Israeli military released images of its troops operating within the demilitarized buffer zone in Syria, an area where UN peacekeepers are based. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu clarified that this action was a “temporary defensive position until a suitable arrangement is found.” He added, “If we can establish neighbourly relations and peaceful relations with the new forces emerging in Syria, that's our desire.
