Syrian media reports Israel attacked Assad regime
Opposition groups in Syria reported on Wednesday that Israeli aircraft had struck facilities of the Assad regime military near Damascus. The IDF had no comment on the reports, in line with standard practice. Fighting otherwise continued in Syria and Iraq Thursday, with a report surfacing of authorities searching for stolen radioactive material, stoking fears that armed factions might be trying to utilize a “dirty bomb” in the ongoing multi-faceted wars of the region.
