Last Thursday, massive explosions rocked the Syrian town of Masyaf as precision guided missiles hit their targets. According to The Washington Post, this was in fact an incursion by Israeli fighter jets against a site that had been producing chemical weapons and missiles for the Syrian government and its allies.
Damascus has already declared that there will be “dangerous repercussions”.
Such incursions are not new. Ever since the Syrian Civil War started back in 2011, that Israel has been using its powerful air force to hit targets of opportunity inside the war-torn country. Such strikes were intended to destroy potential threats to the State of Israel, like truckloads of antiaircraft missiles heading for Lebanon, for example.
