The agency said the Russian military in Syria “regularly turns a blind eye” to Israeli airstrikes on what it believes are Iranian-sponsored deployments and arms transfers.
Yesterday, August 14, Israeli troops launched airstrikes on Iranian military targets near the Russian base in Tartus on the Syrian Mediterranean coast – near the Alawite region of local dictator Bashar al-Assad. Reuters writes about this, citing sources in Syria’s regional intelligence and military.
It was earlier reported that three Syrians were killed and three wounded in two simultaneous Israeli attacks south of Tartus and another attack in the capital.
According to the agency, “two defectors from Syria, familiar with the region” reported that attacks in the northeastern outskirts of Damascus were carried out on outposts of the Lebanese pro-Iranian group Hezbollah.
A Syrian official told Reuters that an Iranian base was attacked near the village of Abu Afsa, south of the port city, next to a nearby air defense and radar station.
The agency said the Russian military in Syria “regularly turns a blind eye” to Israeli airstrikes on what it believes are Iranian-sponsored deployments and arms transfers.
It will be recalled that on the night of Sunday, August 14, not far from the Wailing Wall in the Old City of Jerusalem, a bus, two vehicles and pedestrians were fired upon, with a total of at least eight people injured. The injured were taken to hospitals in Jerusalem. It was learned that four of the injured were tourists from the United States, members of the same family.
