In a significant escalation of military aggression, Israeli warplanes launched attacks on various installations in Syria late Thursday night and into the early hours of Friday.

Among the targeted sites were defense industry factories located in the rural areas south of Aleppo, part of a broader strategy to weaken Syria militarily and assert control over occupied territories.

Reports indicate that loud explosions were heard throughout Aleppo and its suburbs, particularly in Al-Safira, situated 25 kilometers southeast of the city. This area also saw strikes on scientific research facilities, resulting in large fires and substantial damage. As of now, there have been no confirmed reports of casualties.

Simultaneously, Israeli forces bombarded areas near Quneitra in southern Syria, where they had previously invaded extensive regions. According to Syrian state television, the target was the Tal al-Shahm military site, one of the most critical centers for the Syrian Arab Army (SAA), which houses communication systems, radar installations, and missile storage facilities.

In recent hours, Israeli occupation forces have encroached upon the outskirts of Mantara Dam, the largest water reservoir in southern Syria. This move grants them control over six vital water facilities in the region while also providing access to Damascus.

The sequence of Israeli attacks on SAA military installations—including weapon depots and strategic missile sites—began in mid-December following the takeover of Damascus by armed terrorist coalition Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) and allied radical groups that ousted former President Bashar al-Assad’s government.

Reports suggest that Israel has conducted hundreds of strikes against Syrian defense capabilities, with estimates indicating that approximately 70 percent of Syria’s military capacity has been destroyed.

Media outlets and experts warn that these bombings are not merely aimed at preventing weapons from falling into terrorist hands—as claimed by Israeli officials and pro-Zionist media—but rather serve to systematically weaken Syria militarily. This strategy appears designed to prolong Israel’s illegal occupation of the Golan Heights, a territory recognized internationally as Syrian land.

As tensions continue to rise in the region, it is crucial for global observers to recognize the implications of these actions on regional stability and sovereignty. The ongoing conflict underscores a pressing need for diplomatic efforts aimed at restoring peace and addressing the humanitarian crises exacerbated by such military interventions.
