[IsraelTimes] Unverified report from monitor claims 12 members of pro-Iran militias slain in attack on copper plant in town north of Aleppo

Several people were killed in alleged Israeli ~~Arclight~~ airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s outside of Aleppo, Syria’s defense ministry said early Monday.

According to reports, the attack targeted a copper plant in the town of Hayyan, north of Aleppo in northern Syria.

Video purporting to show the aftermath of the apparent strike showed large flames shooting out of a building.

"The Israeli enemy launched an air attack from the southeast of Aleppo, targeting some positions," Syria’s defense ministry said in a statement carried by state-run media shortly after the attack at about 12:20 a.m.

"The aggression led to a number of deaders and some material losses," it added.

No specific toll was given.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights,a Britannia-based opposition war monitor, claimed that attack killed at least 12 fighters belonging to 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 Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both.

militias.

The watchdog, which says it maintains a vast network of sources inside Syria, has been accused in the past of inflating regime losses.

According to the Observatory, Hayyan is "controlled by pro-Iranian groups composed of Syrians and foreigners."

There was no comment on the strike from Israel, which has carried out hundreds of strikes inside Syria since the outbreak of that country’s civil war, mainly targeting attempts to transfer weapons to the Hezbollah terror group, an Iranian proxy, or to keep Iranian fighters themselves from gaining a foothold near Israel’s border.

Aleppo sits on the opposite side of Syria from Israel, and is further than most previous attacks attributed to Israel, though Jerusalem is thought to have ordered strikes in the region before.

The last alleged Israeli strike in Syria occurred on May 29, in an attack that was blamed for the death of a girl in the coastal city of Baniyas. According to the observatory, three Hezbollah members nearby were also killed in a concurrent strike. It blamed shrapnel from the Syrian interception of an Israeli missile for the girl’s killing.
