A major aerial attack is underway in Damascus, Syria, with residents reporting the ground and windows shaking across parts of the city, in likely another Israeli assault after fighter jets were seen traversing Lebanese airspace.
Syrian air defense systems have been activated in Damascus. Unverified social media footage is circulating showing what appears to be fighter jets active near the Syria-Lebanese border in a developing situation.
Local sources are saying sites in the Qalamoun Mountain region that link Lebanon and Syria were targeted, along with locations near the Damascus International Airport and Mezzeh Military Airport, suggesting an extensive target list and major strikes on a level not seen in many months.

Damascus.
Everything is on fire, and it’s all Biden’s fault. This stuff didn’t happen very much when Trump was in the White House.
Can Biden mobilize shipping Syrian refugees to American cities? Oh, the humanity.
Isaiah 17: 1. The Destruction of Damascus coming soon.
Naftali Bennet is allowing Israel to defend itself?!
Sounds like they are in a “Heap” of trouble. Ruinous, that is.
I guess the Israelis aren’t intimidated by the upgraded Russian anti-missile systems in Syria, after all.
Yup. The Scriptures say in one night. That smells NUKE to me to do that. Something will come from Syria, some type of Bio or Chemical weapons attack on Israel and they will hit Damascus with a nuke.
Very good chance.
Exactly!
Very soon!
Beat me to it.
A few weeks ago the word was that the Russians would no longer permit Israeli operations against Iranian backed Militias in Syria.
I am sure they would prefer it if Russian missiles were stood down when the target is not directly the Syrian regime.
So either they turned up their EW and the risk of intelligence leaks from showing their capabilities, or they just said in effect to the Russians, “Shoot at our planes and we destroy all your stuff here.” and the Russians backed down.
The world becomes much more dangerous if America looks weak.
sounds hopeful
the more terrorists that are eliminated, the better
*** Pre-emptive? ***
No, Israel does it because they can get away with it.
Yes, by invading Lebanese airspace, and then attacking Syria on a weekly basis they are defending themselves. 🙄
It would be nice if Israel defended the USA and bombed our talleyband friends.
Can we replace Mosad with the CIA and adopt Israeli ROE in our military?
