Image of the explosion in Damascus that killed Iranian IRGC general and old friend of General #Soleimani who was killed by US drone during #Trump presidency.

Reza #Moisavi is one of the oldest and most senior member of Iranian Revolutionary guards with a long history of actions in Iraq and Syria fighting the #ISIS alongside Soleimani specially during the battle to prevent the fall of Baghdad into the hands of them.

Isrsel has not officially admitted to the killing, but sources in Israel saying that IDF is on high alert in northern Isrsel and occupied Golan heights awaiting a retaliation from groups close to Iran in the region.

#IRGC response to Israel assassination of 2 of it's commanders in #Damascus last week.

From pro Syrian telegram channel:

Israeli army bases in Golan Heights are targeted by IRGC and resistance forces in #Syria.

🔹According to our source, IRGC and resistance groups from the western suburbs of Daraa province, near the borders of the occupied territories, targeted illegal bases of the Zionist regime army in the occupied Golan heights with missile strikes.

🔹The intensity of this missile attack has been unprecedented in recent years.

The Israeli media, citing some #French sources in the Elysee Palace, claim that both #Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad were given a warning.

If they decide to intervene in the conflict, the Israelis will open another front with the support of the American fleet (we are talking about an aircraft carrier strike group, which yesterday began to be transferred to the eastern Mediterranean). And both will suffer an unenviable fate (targeted liquidation), and #Damascus will turn into a “second Dahiya” (we are talking about the events of the Second #Lebanon War, when the southern suburb of Beirut #Dahiya was practically wiped off the face of the #Earth).

At the same time, the Israeli media are increasingly talking about some agreements on the participation of the US Armed Forces in a full-scale joint operation against Hezbollah side by side with the Israel Defense Forces.

And all this news comes amid of an almost unanimous decision by members of the American Congress to forget about military assistance to #Ukraine in favor of military assistance to Israel.

Massive car bomb targeted civilians in #Damascus, capital of #Syria yesterday.

Many casualties and injured was reported and a large block in the city was damaged.

No one has taken responsibility for the car bomb, but #ISIS seems to be behind the àterrorist attack.

Cornered Netanyahu is planning to set the region on fire!

In a desperate move, Netanyahu met with the head of the opposition leader and the head of the army in order to build a united front against outside forces.

Libid, called #Netanyahu unreliable, not trust worthy, weak and indecisive after the meeting while Israeli forces bombed the residence of #Assad's brother in #Damascus.

Another day, another Israeli missile strike against Syria!

According to reports and videos shared by IRGC telegram channel, the Israeli missiles launched from occupied Golan heights were intercepted by Syrian air defense using Iranian made systems. The other sources report of multiple civilian casualties as the debris from the damaged missiles hit civilian targets in suburbs of #Damascus. No reports of any military target hit by those missiles.

This is the 4th night in a row that Israel is bombing targets in Syria as Netanyahu is stepping up his effort to start a war to save his failed fascist coalition government.

In a desperate move, Netanyah took back the head of the army who criticized his judiciary coup last month.

Citing a military source, the state news agency #SANA said #Israel 🇮🇱 “carried out an air attack from the direction of the Mediterranean Sea, west of Latakia, targeting #Aleppo International Airport”

ISrAeL hAs tHe rIgHt tO dEfEnD iTsElF!

It is not often that Israeli criminal actions get any kind of coverage on western media, but I guess bombing an airport that is the only route for foreign aid coming to Syria is just too big to ignore, but of course they bombed the "Iranian targets" , no way Israel would ever bomb a civilian airport, would they? It's not like they are like Russians or something.

There was no comment from Israeli officials. Israel has carried out hundreds of strikes on targets inside government-controlled parts of Syria in recent years, including attacks on the #Damascus and Aleppo airports, but it rarely acknowledges or discusses the operations.

Israel has acknowledged, however, that it targets bases of Iran-allied militant groups, such as Lebanon’s #Hezbollah, which has sent thousands of fighters to support President #Assad’s forces.

Israeli Airstrikes Shut Down Syria’s Aleppo Airport

The strikes marked the second time Israel targeted the airport within a week

Israel has the right to bomb anyone they want. Specially their neighbors.

But no one else has the right to defend themselves, or god forbid, retaliate.

Don't expect beacons of democracy and justice, the EU or NATO to condemn these attacks or much less call for action against the Israeli régime. Their moral compass is only pointing at Ukraine and no where else.

#Israel has carried out missile strikes targeting the airport in the Syrian city of #Aleppo

Syrian state media says the missile attack caused some material damage at the airport but made no mention of casualties.
SANA also said on Wednesday that anti-aircraft defences had intercepted “enemy” missiles above the capital #Damascus. State television said the missiles were Israeli.

Last Thursday, #SANA reported two civilians wounded in a series of Israeli air raids on the western #Hama and #Tartous regions.

Fake video filtered and manipulated to make it look like Israeli surveillance video being shared on social media to cover Israel's murder of Palestinian children.

The original source of this is said to be a #video from #Damascus 2018 when #Syrian military shot several anti aircraft missiles during an Israeli attack.

The video was flipped and filtered with a ridiculously terrible way to make it look like it is a surveillance video

But the angle of the video capture suggest that the camera was located on the ground, a few 100 meters from the site of the accident.

Which means, the so called Israeli surveillance video was in #Gaza city at the time of incident.

This article is from last year, and I don't know if policies might have changed, but this is a dangerous and alarming trend in Europe:

How Denmark’s Syrian refugee residency move reflects shifting policies across Europe (this is a fancy way of saying Denmark's government wants to deport refugees from war-torn Syria sending them back to certain torture and persecution)

Rasha does not know how her attempt to appeal will turn out, but one thing is clear. “I can’t go back to #Syria,” Rasha said, her voice breaking as she recalled the #Syrian secret #police knocking on doors in her neighbourhood on the outskirts of #Damascus, asking about her after she had an argument with her boss. Rasha assumes her boss reported her to the security #forces out of spite after their fight – a not uncommon revenge tactic for those looking to settle scores.

This is why all governments should be abolished and all people should have total and complete freedom of movement.
