An alleged Israeli airstrike near Damascus hit a weapons warehouse and killed several people according to Arab-language media outlets Sunday.

Reports said there was an explosion in the city of Adra, on the eastern outskirts of the capital.

A drone was said to have fired two missiles at the warehouse located in a commercial area.

Initial media reports said that at least two people were killed, though that was not the final toll.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said that 11 people were killed, mostly civilians. It said there was a blast at a weapons depot belonging to the former Syrian regime and that it was “likely resulting from an Israeli attack.”

Israel is trying its best to make sure the new Syrian government continues war with them even after they’ve expressed no interest in doing so.

Of course.

How else are they going to play the victim?

Everyone hates them and they have no idea why. Must be anti-Semitism.
