Just moments after the Trump administration announced the United States’ withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal on Tuesday, reports are coming out of Syria that Israel has conducted airstrikes in the countryside outside of Damascus.
Syrian Al-Masdar News reported, citing preliminary reports, that the Israeli Air Force struck a military target near the town of Kisweh. No casualties have been reported as of yet.
Other unconfirmed reports, according to Al-Masdar, claimed that Israel had struck a Hezbollah convoy.
Israeli news outlet Haaretz also reported explosions south of Damascus on Tuesday evening, following the Israeli government’s order for communities in the northern Golan Heights, near Israel’s border with Syria, to open shelters. The order came after an Israeli military statement cited “unusual movements” of Iranian forces in Syria.
Israeli security forces believe Iran is determined to retaliate for an airstrike which struck Syria’s T4 airbase, killing seven Iranians, according to Haaretz.
The US State Department also issued a warning on traveling to the area:
#GolanHeights Security Alert: Due to the recent tensions in the region, U.S. gov’t employees are required to obtain advance approval if they wish to travel to the Golan Heights until further notice. Consider carefully travel to the Golan Heights until the situation stabilizes. pic.twitter.com/GRrT3s1hdW

It is right that israel bombed their position in syria. Those people is in war since time immemorials.

You must be day dreaming. Expect more pounding from Israel
I read comments here by some uncivilized, unkept and uncultured uncircimcized idiots here about Israel and I developed stomach ache. Why are all of you so clumsy and foolish? Israel is invincible and cannot be defeated by you or your weak army. Idiots, keep hating. Fools
Yeah like arragant slant eyes claiming all the south china sea ur correct
ISREAL is the Chosen Children of the God Of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob who laler was Renamed: " ISREAL" by the God of Creation after he had fight with his God on the way to his own homeland with his family from exile in his motherland.
Their Traditional God will Defend the existence of His Children in their Fatherland. And JERUSALEM has been the Holy City of the God of ISREAL.
imagine all the people living life in peace…(beatles)
Pooh hang chan s ass is big
uhhhh…..you probably live under a rock, they’ve been bombing Israel for decades.
escalation of a third world war, be sure.
Israel will keep pushing and get away with as much as it possibly can.
It is a threat to the Middle East, ans essentilly the world.
Israel just remember Adolf Hitler he gave you what you deserve and Germany is still strong
Looks who’s talking when have Saudi, Israel and USA have been upto? Funding terrorists
Thomas Taimu Not an African country thats for sure….
And who will do the bombing of Israel? Russia, Iran, Syria or who exactly?
If Iran did not fund terrorist organisations to attack Israel then Israel would not attack them in Syria.
Israel should be bombed intensively until its arrogance and imperial ambitions are destroyed.
The US is responsible for the destruction of the Middle East by Israel.
Impunity, an American legacy.
