Israel's strike in Syria sends an unmistakable signal to Iran, whose proxies are waging open war on the Jewish state.
sends an unmistakable signal to Iran, whose proxies are waging open war on the Jewish state. Tehran has sworn revenge and further escalation seems likely.
The strike on Monday killed seven people, including two top generals from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Quds Force: Mohammad Reza Zahedi and his deputy, Mohammad-Haji Rahimi. Zahedi was a big fish, the highest-ranking IRGC operative in both Lebanon and Syria. The strike comes at an important time. The Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attack by Hamas and other Iranian-backed, Gaza-based proxies sent Israel. And while Israel has since launched an extensive air and ground campaign in Gaza, the security situation on its northern borders remains
For months, IRGC-backed proxies in Lebanon and Syria, most notably Hezbollah, have launched missiles into Israel, killing several Israelis and sparking the mass evacuation of tens of thousands of others. Hezbollah hasto come fully to Hamas’s aid, however. Instead, Hezbollah and other IRGC-supported elements have chosen to wage a low-intensity war on the Jewish state.
