The Israeli armed forces took responsibility on Tuesday night for an airstrike against Lebanon’s Hezbollah “infrastructure” in Syria, reiterating that they mean to prevent the armed movement from consolidating in the region.

“The army bombed military infrastructure which, based on specific information, was being used by the Hezbollah terrorist organization on the Syrian front,” the Israeli armed forces said via X.

The Israeli army “holds the Syrian regime responsible for all activities on its territory and will not allow Hezbollah to gain positions on the Syrian front,” he added.

Earlier yesterday, it said it hit a Syrian military position, retaliating for a rocket launch from southern Syria against the Golan Heights, part of which Israel has seized and annexed.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a non-governmental organization based in Britain that has a wide network of sources in Syria, spoke of two Israeli strikes, one yesterday Tuesday morning, the other Monday night.

What happened yesterday Tuesday morning in Daraa governorate (south) targeted warehouses “with weapons and ammunition” of both Damascus forces and “organizations supported by Iran” and destroyed the targets, according to the Observatory.

Last Monday night, Israel hit a military installation in southern Syria “retaliating against Iranian-backed organizations and the Lebanese Hezbollah, which launched rockets from Syrian territory in the direction of the occupied Syrian Golan Heights,” according to the NGO.

These incidents follow the April 1 airstrike attributed to Israel on the consular section of the Iranian embassy in Damascus, in which 16 people were killed, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. Among them were seven members of the Revolutionary Guards, an elite body of the Islamic Republic’s army, including two senior officers.

The Israeli military has launched hundreds of bombings in Syria, almost all of them from the air, since the outbreak of war in the neighboring country in 2011, specifically targeting formations close to Iran.

Israel rarely publicly takes responsibility for these strikes, but it often declares that it will not allow the transfer of weapons from Iran to the Lebanese Hezbollah in Syria, nor the consolidation of this Shiite movement, a sworn enemy of the Jewish state, in the southern part of Syria. territory.
