Title: Israel Accused of Air Raid on Iranian Positions in Aleppo, Raising Concerns of Regional Conflict
In a recent development, the Syrian Ministry of Defence has accused Israel of carrying out an air raid on Iranian military positions in Syria’s Aleppo. The attack reportedly took place at approximately 5:20 pm on Saturday, causing some material damage but sparing the Aleppo airport from harm.
This is not the first time Israel has launched air raids on Syrian territory. Over the past decade, Israel has conducted numerous airstrikes, primarily targeting Iran-backed forces and Syrian army positions. However, the frequency of these attacks has intensified since the beginning of Israel’s military operation in Gaza on October 7.
The attack on Aleppo is part of a concerning pattern that includes recent airstrikes on Damascus and Albu Kamal. Israeli aggression has not been limited to Syria, as there was also an air raid on a border town in southern Lebanon on the same day. The responsibility for three attacks on Israeli military bases along the border was claimed by Hezbollah, an Iran-backed group.
These attacks in both Syria and Lebanon have raised fears among regional experts that Israel’s conflict in Gaza could expand into a wider regional conflict. The rising tensions in the region have prompted concerns of an escalation, potentially drawing other countries into the ongoing hostilities.
Israel’s continuous targeting of Iranian military positions and its support to Syria’s opposition forces have strained relations between the two countries. The recent air raid on Aleppo could further strain these already fragile ties and potentially disrupt the delicate balance in the ongoing Syrian conflict.
As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen whether these recent attacks will lead to an all-out regional conflict or serve as isolated incidents. International actors are closely monitoring the situation, hoping to find a peaceful resolution to the escalating tensions.
