Israel Strikes Hezbollah Facility in Syria Amid Intense Fighting in Aleppo

by Emmitt Barry, Worthy News Correspondent

(Worthy News) – Amid intense fighting in Aleppo, Syria’s second-largest city, Israeli Air Force fighter jets tested the fragile ceasefire in Lebanon on Saturday with strikes targeting infrastructure in Syria near a border crossing with Lebanon. Israel stated the site was “actively” being used by Hezbollah for weapons transfers.

Israel conducted multiple strikes across Lebanon and Syria, citing violations of the ceasefire agreement.

“The IDF will continue to act to remove any threat to the State of Israel that violates the terms of the ceasefire agreement,” the military stated.

The IDF accused Hezbollah, with backing from the Syrian regime, of exploiting civilian border crossings to smuggle weapons into Lebanon. Amid the ceasefire, Israel has pledged to block all weapon transfers to Hezbollah.

Amid escalating unrest in Syria, Israeli strikes coincided with a major rebel offensive in Aleppo, where insurgents seized territory and clashed fiercely with government forces for a second day, according to both government and opposition sources.

The Aleppo offensive was launched on the same day a ceasefire began between Hezbollah, a Syrian ally, and Israel. It marked the largest attack since March 2020, when Russia, backing Syrian President Bashar Assad, and Turkey, supporting the rebels, brokered a ceasefire that halted years of conflict displacing millions opposed to Assad’s rule.

Syria’s armed forces reported Thursday that Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), which controls much of northwest Syria, launched an ongoing offensive targeting several villages and military bases.

Designated a terrorist organization by the United States and Turkey, HTS has been repeatedly targeted by Syrian government and Russian forces. Once known as the Nusra Front, al-Qaeda’s Syrian branch, HTS has rebranded multiple times in an effort to distance itself from its al-Qaeda origins.
