Background [ edit ]
Since the Israel–Gaza war began on 7 October 2023, there has been an escalation in Israeli attacks against Syria. Israel has consistently conducted missile attacks against locations it claims to be connected to Iran since the Syrian civil war broke out in 2011, rarely commenting on these actions. There has been an Iranian presence in Syria since the beginning of the Syrian civil war , with Iranian forces bolstering the government of President Bashar al-Assad against rebel forces.[3]
On 2 February 2024, the United States Air Force launched attacks against what it claimed were militia sites in Iraq and Syria, killing 45 people in after the Tower 22 drone strike that killed 3 US soldiers in Jordan .[3]
