21 attacks in 2022 | Russian strikes hit Iranian-backed militias’ positions in western Hama

SOHR sources have reported that Israeli fighter jets renewed their attacks in Syrian territory this evening, targeting several positions in west Hama countryside. The Israeli airstrikes targeted positions and warehouses of Iranian-backed militias on Wadi Al-Oyoun road, west of Masyaf and the area of the scientific research centre, amid unconfirmed reports on attacks on Jeb Ramlah area. However, no casualties have been reported so far.

 

It is worth noting that this is the 21st attack in Syrian territory in 2022. It is also the 3rd attack in Hama province this year.

 

On May 13, six officers and non-commissioned officers, five of whom were officers of air-defence forces, were killed by direct Israeli attack on an air-defence vehicle, while they were trying to intercept the Israeli rockets fired on Wadi Al-Oyoun road, west of Masyaf and Al-Suwaidah area south-east of Masyaf in Hama countryside. The Israeli bombardment also left more than ten other military personnel and civilians, including a little girl, injured.

 

While on April 9, Israeli missiles hit five military outposts in west Hama countryside, targeting the vicinity of the faculty of administration, scientific research centre, a military post in Al-Suwaidah village and a military post on the outskirts of Masyaf.
