sraeli attacks on Syria have become daily, and now the United States is ramping up its own attacks in the northeast of the country as well.
On Thursday Israeli warplanes launched attacks on two residential buildings in the Damascus suburbs - one in Mazzeh and the other in Qudsaya, which lies west of the capital. Regional reports said that many people were killed, and Syrian state SANA posted photos of bombed-out apartments.
Israeli Army Radio in a rare acknowledgement appeared to confirm the Israeli attack while claiming the fresh attacks targeted the Syrian headquarters the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) group, which is fighting alongside Hamas in Gaza, and has held Israeli citizens captive since Oct.7, 2023.
