Editor’s Note: Not to make the Israeli’s seem more powerful than they are, but rather to show their calloused indifference to civilian lives and infrastructure.
The most violent Israeli aggression on Syria, which targeted Tartus, on Monday at dawn, resulted in the killing and injury of civilians.
Israeli strikes in Tartus countryside caused massive explosions, Al Mayadeen‘s correspondent reported early Monday, as the Israeli regime continues to target and destroy Syria’s military capabilities.
Several civilians were killed and injured in what has been described as the heaviest and most violent attacks on Syria since the onset of Israeli aggression. The intense bombardment on the city was so powerful that it caused an earthquake-like tremor, which residents could physically feel, according to Al Mayadeen‘s correspondent.
Israeli media reporting on the bombing described the aggression as a “Hiroshima in Tartus” due to the intensity of the attacks.
Our correspondent said that the strikes targeted weapons depots in several sites in western Syria.

According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, “Israeli warplanes launched strikes” targeting a series of sites including air defense units and “surface-to-surface missile depots,” with the blasts so powerful they registered as a magnitude 3.0 on seismic sensors.
