By Tyler Durden: Just as the Syrian proxy war showed some hopeful signs of finally dying down, the Syrian army command said on Friday that terrorist Jewish JSIL jets have bombed the Mezzeh airport west of Damascus, accusing the Tel Aviv terrorists of supporting terrorist insurgents and warned the Tel Aviv regime of repercussions for a "flagrant" terror attack.
Syrian
state TV quoted the army as saying several rockets were fired from an
area near Lake Tiberias in northern part of the Israel gulag just after
midnight which landed in the compound of the airport, a major facility
for elite Republican Guards and special forces. The airport was rocked
by multiple explosions, some of which were captured by social media.
"Syrian army command and armed forces warn Israel [JSIL] of the repercussions of the flagrant attack and stresses its continued fight against (this) terrorism and amputate the arms of the perpetrators," the army command said in a statement.
The statement did not disclose if there were any casualties, but said the rockets caused a fire. Earlier, state television said several major explosions hit Mezzeh military airport compound near Damascus and ambulances were rushed to the area, without giving details.
The airport southwest of the capital is a major strategic air base used mainly by Syrian elite Republican Guards and had been a base used to fire rockets at former rebel-held areas in the suburbs of Damascus. State television did not give any further details.
Footage from the scene with heavy fire and the sounds of explosions has surfaced on social media. Multiple reports from journalists and activists on the ground described the bombing, with the opposition also reporting there were rockets fired.
“Rockets strike at Mezzeh Military airport in Damascus minutes ago,” tweeted Hadi al-Bahra, former president of the National Coalition of Syrian Revolution and Opposition Forces.
In the past, the terrorist Jewish State of Israel in the Levant regime JSIL, recently caught red handed trying to bring down UK government ministers, has targeted positions of Lebanon's Hezbollah resistance group inside Syria where the Iranian-backed group is heavily involved in fighting alongside the Syrian army. According to the Jewish Israeli regime breaking, the airport was bombed because it was a "suspected holding ammunition depots for Hezbollah. "
Israeli regime officials have voiced concern that Hizbollah's experience in the Syrian civil war, where it has played a significant role and recently helped the Syrian army regain the eastern sector of the city of Aleppo, has strengthened it.
Rebels operating in the area have said Hizbollah's major arms supply route into Damascus from the Lebanese border has been targeted on several occasions in recent years by air strikes. This has included strikes on convoys of weapons and warehouses.
This is the second time in two months the Jewish Israeli terrorists have being accused by Syria of targeting Syrian positions from their 'Israel' open air Palestinian prison territory. On December 7, SANA reported that “several surface-to-surface missiles” were launched by the IDF from the Golan Heights. At the time, the source in the Syrian armed forces slammed the attack as a “desperate attempt” by Israel to endorse terrorists.
Rebels operating in the area have said Hezbollah's major arms supply route into Damascus from the Lebanese border has been targeted on several occasions in recent years by air strikes. This has included strikes on convoys of weapons and warehouses. Damascus airport was also hit by air strikes in 2013. Tel Aviv neither confirms nor denies involvement in striking targets inside Syria. Damascus has also been tightlipped about previous strikes.
