ISRAELI STRIKES HIT SYRIA'S NAVY, MILITARY ARSENALS

Teens arrested for attempting to sneak Israeli-made drone past airport security

In a tense escalation, Israel carried out airstrikes against Syria's navy and military arsenals late on Tuesday, in what officials described as "precision" strikes aimed at dismantling Iran's presence in the region.

According to sources from Damascus, multiple sites were targeted by the Israeli assault, resulting in significant damage to key military installations and naval bases. The exact scope of the destruction is still unclear due to limited information available.

Meanwhile, 16 Iranian drones escaped into Lebanese airspace earlier on Tuesday ahead of Israel. Following a joint air exercise between US forces at the Ramstein base in Germany and French fighter jets stationed near Toulouse, it emerged that these drones could potentially carry significant payload or even arms.

Amid growing tensions over Iran's military presence in the region amid increasing anti-Israel strikes, experts predicted today might bring further escalation into regional conflict.
