Israeli jets hit Iran‑linked research base in Aleppo
Israel has stepped up its bombardment of military sites linked to Iran and Hezbollah in Syria, with a top-secret research base the latest target.
Heavy raids near Aleppo and in the east of Syria on Monday night killed a number of fighters from militias linked to Iran, according to local reports.
The target in Aleppo was said to be a building belonging to the Scientific Studies and Research Centre, one of the two main bases for
Syria’s chemical and biological warfare programmes. The site is also thought to be a key research centre for Iran’s missile development programme, and a transit point for the supply of missiles to the Iran-backed Lebanese militia Hezbollah........
The target in eastern Syria, near Mayadeen, was less clear. However, it is on the main route used by Iranian-backed militias to cross from Iraq to Syria. Fourteen fighters, both Iraqi and Iranian, were said to have been killed in the strikes.......
The raids were the fifth and sixth in the past two weeks by Israel inside Syria. Iran has made little response.
