Israel admits increasing airstrikes against Syria

Tel Aviv, Apr 21 (Prensa Latina) Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant admitted that the Air Force (IAF) doubled the number of attacks against Syria in the first quarter of the year, the Walla news portal reported.

According to the site, Gallant claimed that the targets are “Iranian assets and capabilities,” although he did not provide any evidence of this.

The Air Force has been given green light to operate in the most dangerous places without geographical restrictions, the official said, in a clear threat against Tehran.

The IAF systematically bombs Syria, although the government rarely acknowledges incursions by its aircraft.

The Damascus authorities have denounced on numerous occasions the attacks as a violation of their national sovereignty and international laws.

Since coming to power last December, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has increased his rhetoric against Iran’s nuclear program.
