A Syrian military academy situated there serves as an Iranian/HIzballah intelligence war room and an Iranian electronic warfare facility. The explosions were reported by Sky News in Arabic with no official confirmation or indication of what caused them. If confirmed, this would appear to be the second pinpointed attack in four days on an Iranian military target in Syria. On May 18, fuel, arms and ammunition depots at a Syrian air base near Hama were blown up, causing massive explosions. Despite Syrian official denials, a number of Iranian officers were killed in this attack on one of Iran’s most important bases in Syria. DEBKAfile’s military sources learned later that the attack was carried out by an unnamed ground force, which fired eight missiles at the base. Poster Comment: zvi ticker This and May 18th were professionally executed special forces operations. No ragtag syrian rebel forces are able to do it. Either this is a work of Israel or the US, who only have such capabilities, and now there is a flood of the disinformation to cover the tracks. All these talk about eight missiles is a complete nonsense. If we are not speaking about artillery rocket carrying significant explosive warhead, and requiring a truck or armoured carrier based launcher, neither Javelin nor Spike with small charge not exceeding 9 kg are able to cause massive explosion in the fuel or ammunition depot, however professionally placed multiple charges can. Beyond that Russians using their S-400 are able to see any flying object, missile included, but they keep mum and don’t comment. Technically Israel has a problem to send and retrieve commando team via air, and being unnoticed, so the US special operations forces are most probable executor of the operation.
