Israel said to heavily strike military targets on Syrian coast
[IsraelTimes] Reports say Israeli strikes have targeted military sites in Syria’s coastal Tartus region, with a Syria war monitor calling them “the heaviest strikes” in the area in more than a decade.
“Israeli warplanes launched strikes” targeting a series of sites, including air defense units and “surface-to-surface missile depots,” says the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, in what it says were “the heaviest strikes in Syria’s coastal region since the start of strikes in 2012.”
Footage posted to social media shows a huge explosion.
SOHR, run by a single person, has regularly been accused by Syrian war analysts of false reporting and inflating casualty numbers as well as inventing them wholesale.
Israel still striking former Syrian army depots: Monitor
[Rudaw] Israeli warplanes on Sunday continued striking warehouses and ammunition depots of the former Syrian army in the Damascus, Hama, and Homs provinces, a war monitor reported.
The latest round of strikes targeted missile warehouses in the Qalamoun Mountains in Damascus, as well as weapons warehouses and air defense facilities in Homs and Hama, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based war monitor.
“Since Saturday evening, Israeli warplanes have launched 61 airstrikes and carried out 26 raids. This brings the number of Israeli strikes to 446, targeting 13 Syrian provinces since the fall of the former regime on December 8,” the Observatory said.
Israel has been scrambling to destroy Syria’s military stockpiles since last Sunday, when rebels ousted Bashar al-Assad’s regime from power and sent him fleeing to Russia. It has also sent troops marching across the border into a buffer zone east of the annexed Golan Heights, a move condemned by Arab countries and the United Nations.
It has defended its decision to send troops across the border as a precaution to political uncertainty in Syria.
As Assad’s regime fell, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called it a “historic day for the Middle East.”
Tartus strikes said picked up by quake monitor
[IsraelTimes] A tremor recorded off the coast of Syria late last night is being attributed in Hebrew language media to heavy Israeli strikes allegedly carried out in in the coastal Tartus region.
A 3.1 magnitude temblor is reported by the Geographic Survey of Israel’s seismology department at 11:49 p.m. last night, with its epicenter about 28 kilometers (17 miles) off the coast of the city of Banias.
The earthquake’s depth is measured at 32 kilometers (20 miles), and there is no confirmation that the reading was in fact caused by explosions.
According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, Israeli planes launched intense strikes in Syria’s coastal region late Sunday targeting air defense units, “surface-to-surface missile depots” and other sites.

Israel has done more for peace and security than the United Nations.
