Israeli airstrikes target Damascus: State media

2024-05-10

[Rudaw] A series of Israeli ~~Arclight~~ airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s on Thursday targeted a "building" in the Syrian capital Damascus, state media reported. A war monitor said the strikes targeted a pro-Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Sturmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Fuhrer or maybe both. They hate ~~Jews~~ ~~Zionists~~ Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
Iraqi militia base in the city.

"At around 3:20 am today, the Israeli enemy launched airstrikes from the direction of the occupied Syrian Golan, targeting a building in the Damascus countryside," Syria’s state-owned SANA news agency said citing a military source, adding that air defenses intercepted the missiles.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR), a Britannia-based war monitor, reported that the strikes targeted "a base and cultural center" of the Iran-backed Iraqi militia Harakat al-Nujaba, which comprises the 12th brigade of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF, or Hashd al-Shaabi).

The strikes inflicted material damage, and were carried out in the Sayyida Zeinab area in southern Damascus — a stronghold for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and its affiliated militias.

It is the latest amid increased hostilities against the backdrop of the Israel-Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
war with Israel on the cusp of launching its long-threatened ground offensive in Rafah, south of Gaza along the border with Egypt.

Last week, an Israeli strike on Damascus injured eight Syrian army soldiers. It was the first on the city since a deadly strike on the consular annex section of the Iranian embassy on April 1, which Tehran blamed on Israel.
