Syrian air defenses thwarted an Israeli attack on Aleppo city, Syrian state television said on Friday.
The attack reportedly left seven militia men of the Iraqi Hezbollah dead, and the death toll is expected to rise due to the severity of ensuing causalities, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported.
The organization added that unidentified jets, which Syria suspects to be Israeli, struck Hezbollah targets five km away from Qallat Al-Rahbah on the outskirts of Al-Mayadeen city in the eastern countryside of Deir Ezzor.

Doesn't sound thwarted to me.Syria blocked all of Israel's bombs with their targets.

Thanks for the photo of the Syrian air defense missile in action, after the target was hit. ;D

And the Israelis had to cross over a ton of Syrian ground en route to target. There were reports this morning that the Israelis flew into Syria from Al Tanf, which means they likely over flew Jordan and then through American controlled airspace on their way to Aleppo.

does that mean that Israel targeted their ‘research facilities’ successfully? as in they “stopped the missiles” with the targets that they were sent to blow up... in the first place.
Only Islamists fail to see how they look to the rest of us.
Israel scores seven to Syria’s zero...
game over.

Confused, I am.
Why would Syria be shooting missiles at Israli aircraft if they were attacking Iraqi Hezbolla troops?

The S-400 is a serious area SAM system
```
Only if it has the correct Russian missiles in the Tiers and than only if the operators are trained in using the system - last I heard, the Russians had no plans to give them the missiles and training was on hold. Plus, there is no need to go anywhere near Tartus where the S-400 batteries are located.
All the other systems are antiques and easily defeated.

The article needs more detail, but my guess is that Israeli jets violated Syrian airspace to attack the Iraqi Hezbollah troops in Syria.
The whole Middle East situation is very confusing. Too many players, too many moving pieces.

The best tests use live ordnance! :)

It’s highly plausible that it will come to pass soon.
This year? Next? Only God knows.
Personally I think 10 years might be way too far down the road.
The players are all ready lined up for Ezekiel 38/39.
