Israel Conducts Airstrikes Amid Syrian Turmoil

In response to the recent collapse of the Assad regime in Syria, Israel has intensified its airstrikes targeting key military facilities and weapon depots, particularly in Damascus. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that he ordered strikes on the Kafr Sousa district and a research center associated with Iranian missile development, asserting that Israel aims to prevent advanced weapons from falling into the hands of hostile groups. The IDF has also secured positions along the Syrian border following rebel advances, with reports indicating the regime's forces have abandoned their posts. As the situation evolves, Netanyahu characterized the fall of Assad as a 'historic day for the Middle East', attributing it to Israel's long-term efforts against Iran and Hezbollah. Meanwhile, the fate of Assad remains uncertain, with speculation about his possible escape or demise amid the chaos. Israel is reportedly coordinating with Russia regarding the control of strategic sites in southern Syria.
