Syria Reports Israeli Attack near Damascus Outskirts

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Syrian Defense Ministry revealed an early morning assault by the Israeli regime on the outskirts of Damascus, marking a string of recent strikes in the region.

A spokesperson from the Syrian Defense Ministry disclosed that the Israeli regime launched a missile attack on Damascus's periphery, originating from the occupied Golan Heights. The strike caused material damage to specific areas within the capital.


The source detailed the assault, stating, "At 4:35 AM on Tuesday (local time), the Israeli enemy initiated an airstrike from the occupied Golan Heights, targeting rural areas of Damascus, resulting in noticeable material damage."

Over the past week, the Israeli regime has executed multiple missile attacks on airports in Damascus and Aleppo, leading to significant material harm at both locations.


The increase in Israeli attacks on Syria follows the Tel Aviv regime's bloody assault on Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip.

After Hamas launched the surprise operation against the occupying entity in response to the Israeli regime's decades-long campaign of bloodletting and devastation against Palestinians, Israel launched the war on Gaza on October 7.

According to the Gaza-based health ministry, Israeli strikes killed nearly 22,000 Palestinians, including over 6,500 children and 4,000 women. Many more people are believed to be dead beneath the rubble.


Tel Aviv has also imposed a "complete siege" on Gaza, cutting off fuel, electricity, food, and water to over two million Palestinians.

Israel regularly strikes military installations inside Syria, particularly those affiliated with Hezbollah, the Lebanese resistance organization that has been instrumental in aiding the Syrian army in its conflict with terrorists supported by foreign powers.

Few people have commented on Israel's attacks on Syrian territory, which many view as a hasty response to the Syrian government's achievements in fighting and eliminating terrorism.

Since the foreign-backed militancy broke out in Syria, Israel has been one of the main sponsors of terrorist organizations that oppose President Bashar al-Assad's democratically elected administration.

The Reuters/Ipsos survey found only 32 percent of respondents said “the US should support Israel”. That is down from 41 percent from a poll conducted on October 12-13 – just days after the war broke out. About 68 percent of respondents said they agreed with the statement, “Israel should call a ceasefire and try to negotiate”. Some 39 percent supported the idea “the US should be a neutral mediator”, compared with 27 percent a month earlier. Only 4 percent of respondents said the United States should support Palestinians, while 15 percent said the US shouldn’t be involved at all in the war. While the US has been a significant Israeli ally, just 31 percent of respondents said they supported sending Israel weapons. The plunge in support fol

US ‘Biggest Nuclear Threat’: China

  TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The United States poses the greatest danger to the world when it comes to the risks of a potential nuclear conflict, Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Zhang Xiaogang told journalists on Friday. Beijing has accused Washington of making “irresponsible decisions” in attempts to maintain its hegemony, including through intimidating the international community with its nuclear arsenal, RT reported. The damning statement came in response to the Pentagon’s decision to upgrade US Forces Japan into a joint force headquarters under the command of a three-star officer reporting to the commander of the Indo-Pacific Command. The announcement was made by the US Defense Department in late July following the meeting of the American and Japanese defense and foreign policy chiefs. US Defense Secretary Llyod Austin hailed the development as “one of the strongest improvements in our military ties with Japan in 70 years” at that time. He also said that the two sides “held a separate
