The Russian military said on Monday that two Israeli F-15 war planes carried out airstrikes on a Syrian air base near Homs on Sunday, the Interfax news agency reported. 14 people were reportedly killed in the strike, at least four of them Iranians.

Interfax cited the Russian Defense Ministry as saying the Israeli war planes had carried out the strikes from Lebanese air space. The Russian ministry said that Syrian air defense systems had shot down five of eight missiles fired, while the other three landed in the western part of the base. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Monday that the strike was "a dangerous development."

Asked about the Russian statement, an Israeli military spokesman said he had no immediate comment.

I wonder if Israel was also behind the chemical attack in Douma?

Israel doesn't need a chemical attack to strike inside Syria. Israel has a non conflict arrangement with Russia and can strike when and where they please.

Your CT is without motive.

I'm aware of that. But what are the chances that Assad would attack randos in Syria, 2 days after Trump said he wants to pull out? Don't tell me you buy McCain's bs.

If the Syrians cared about what Trump claimed, they would gave waited six months. The gas attack sends a message to Trump: "you're out or not, whatever, we do what we want".

Israel strikes to keep weapons out of Hez hands, and Russia lets them do so when Israel pleases.

Netanyahu could not convince Trump to rethink his decision to withdraw U.S. forces from Syria, an Israeli source briefed on the call told me.

What great luck! Assad appears to be doing Netanyahu's work for him!....If you're foolish enough to believe what you're told. Anyway, John Bolton must have a boner at all of this, his first day on the job was yesterday, and he's already found more favors to do for Israel.

That's all good.

The CT/fake news/propaganda is being generatedby the headchoppers main propaganda front organization, the White Helmets. You suck it up like a milk shake. I'd get that fixed if I were you. They are also funded by the CIA and MI6.

White Helmets are heroes.

SCD's stated mission is "to save the greatest number of lives in the shortest possible time and to minimize further injury to people and damage to property."[27] Their work covers the 15 civil defence tasks as laid out in international humanitarian law (IHL);[28] the bulk of their activity in Syria consists of urban search and rescue in response to bombing, medical evacuation, evacuation of civilians from danger areas, and essential service delivery.[29]

The most prominent role of SCD was rescuing civilians from airstrikes with barrel bombs, improvised explosive devices dropped by SAAF helicopters. Following a request from Bashar al-Assad for support, Russia intervened in the Syrian Civil War on 30 September 2015.[30] Much of the work of SCD has been responding to aerial bombardments by the Russian Air Force attack aircraft.

As well as providing rescue services, SCD undertakes repair works such as securing damaged buildings and reconnecting electrical and water services, clearing roads, teaching children about unexploded ordnance hazards, as well as firefighting and winter storm relief.[31][32][33] Sometimes described as the most dangerous job in the world,[34][10] SCD operations involve risk from a wide variety of war-zone threats. By late 2016, 159 White Helmets had been killed since the organisation's inception.[32]...

As of 2015, SCD had an annual budget of $30 million provided by a mix of state donors and public fundraising. Volunteers who work full-time receive a $150 monthly stipend.[38]...

There are about 100 female White Helmets.[41][42]
