Suspected Israeli airstrikes Sunday hit aid trucks, military sites in Syria: Monitor
|
Now we know what the Israelis went after at that Iranian factory building in this story from yesterday. What odds the trucks were carrying weapons for Hizbollah instead of the listed aid supplies? Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM! ...
on Sunday struck aid trucks loaded with foods and supplies bound for refugees from Leb
 ...an Iranian satrapy until recently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
in Syria’s central Homs province, injuring three people, a war monitor reported.
"Israeli airstrikes attacked three trucks loaded with food and medical supplies at an Iranian car factory in Hasba’a industrial area in southern Homs, injuring three members of the relief teams," the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported.
The convoy was "coming from Iraq to deliver humanitarian aid to the Lebanese affected by the Israeli airstrikes," according to SOHR.
The Iraqi Red Islamic Thingy Society told Rudaw on Saturday that it has been providing humanitarian aid to Lebanon, including tons of food, blankets, and medicine, through air and ground since the latest conflict began two weeks ago.
SOHR, which relies on a network of local sources, reported that 150 trucks entered Syria from Iraq on Friday through the al-Bukamal - al-Qaam border crossing.
On Friday, the Damascus-Beirut road was put out of service following Israeli airstrikes on both sides of the Syria-Lebaon border.
The UN Refugee Agency in an update on Thursday described the crossing as "the primary entry point for most of the Syrian and Lebanese families crossing into Syria."
This comes amid a recent escalation of Israeli operations in Lebanon targeting the Iran-backed Hezbollah group.
According to data compiled by SOHR, about 200 Syrian nationals were killed as a result of Israeli airstrikes in Syria and Lebanon in September.
Since the conflict began, 1.2 million people, nearly a quarter of the Lebanese population, have been displaced, Lebanon's caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati said on Wednesday.
The United Nations
...an organization which on balance has done more bad than good, with the good not done well and the bad done thoroughly...
on Monday, citing Lebanese officials, reported that more than 1,600 people have been killed and 8,000 maimed in Lebanon by Israeli bombardments since October 2023.
Israeli strikes target ‘military sites’ in central Syria Sunday: State media
[Rudaw] A number of Israeli airstrikes on Sunday targeted “several military sites” in central Syria, causing material damage, state media reported, as regional tensions intensify against the backdrop of the Israel-Gaza war.
“At around 8:05 pm today, the Israeli enemy launched an air aggression from the direction of northern Lebanon, targeting a number of military sites in the central region,” Syria’s state-run SANA news agency reported, citing a military source. SANA said the strikes caused material damage.
Israel has recently intensified its strikes on Syria, targeting warehouses of the Syrian army and Iran-backed militia positions across the country.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a UK-based war monitor, reported that the strikes targeted three Syrian army sites in the central Homs and Hama provinces.
