Israel attacked positions in the suburbs of Damascus, which, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, are the headquarters of Hezbollah and Islamic Republic of Iran militias.
On Monday evening, December 11, for the second week in a row, Israeli warplanes heavily targeted the positions of Iran and Hezbollah in the south of Damascus, the capital of Syria, reports Iran International.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights announced that Israeli missiles targeted the positions of Iranian and Hezbollah militias in the Sayde Zeinab area, Damascus International Airport, and the suburbs of this city.
It is speculated that these positions were weapons and ammunition warehouses but GSW cannot independently verify this claim.
One of the rockets is reported to have hit the headquarters of the militants of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the town of Al-Badhliyeh near Sayeda Zainab. Huge explosions were also heard from the headquarters of the 1st Army in the city of al-Kuswah in the southwest of Damascus where the air defence systems of the Syrian regime are located.
A week ago, Israeli planes bombarded the positions of Hezbollah-affiliated forces and Iranian militias in the areas of Sayeda Zeinab and Hajirah in the south of Damascus.
Following this attack, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced mourning for its two dead members.
In response to this incident, the spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic, Nasser Kanaani, threatened: "The Islamic Republic will respond to any attack."
He emphasized: "No action against Iran and Iran's interests and our advisory forces in Syria will go without a reaction, and those who take action and have taken action have experienced this issue," quotes local media Iran International.
Since the beginning of the war in Gaza, Israel has targeted Syrian territory 30 times, which killed 32 people including 13 members of the Lebanese Hezbollah and two members of the Revolutionary Guards Corps of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
On the other hand, international pressure, especially from the US and France, continues to prevent Lebanon from being drawn into the war in Gaza.
Walid Jumblatt, the leader of the Progressive Socialist Party in Lebanon, has conveyed his strong concern about the spread of conflicts in separate messages to the Hezbollah group and the ambassador of the Islamic Republic in Beirut.
Mojtaba Amani, the ambassador of the Islamic Republic in Beirut, emphasized that the Islamic Republic does not want war or its expansion, and based on the evaluations of the situation in Gaza, Tehran is confident in the capabilities of Hamas to stand against Israel.
