IDF: Footage From the Operation To Dismantle Strategic Weapons in Syria
In recent weeks, the IDF, led by the Intelligence Directorate, has been conducting a comprehensive situational assessment regarding the internal situation in Syria. In anticipation of the potential collapse of the Assad regime, the Israeli Air Force prepared an extensive strike plan to eliminate advanced military capabilities in Syria, including strategic weapons.
In recent days, hundreds of Israeli Air Force fighter jets and aircraft inflicted severe damage on Syria’s most strategic weapons: fighter jets and helicopters, Scud missiles, UAVs, cruise missiles, surface-to-sea precision-guided missiles, surface-to-air missiles, surface-to-surface missiles, radars, rockets, and more.
The majority of the strikes severely damaged Syria’s aerial defense systems, destroying over 90% of the identified strategic surface-to-air missiles. Syria’s aerial defense network is among the strongest in the Middle East, and the damage inflicted represents a significant achievement for the Israeli Air Force’s superiority in the region.
Additionally, Syrian Air Force bases were struck. One of the bases that was struck was the T4 Airport in the northern Damascus area, where two Syrian Air Force squadrons—the SU-22 squadron and the SU-24 squadron—were destroyed. Another base targeted was the “Ble” Airport, which housed three fighter squadrons. Approximately 1.5 kilometers from this base, a site used for storing surface-to-surface missiles and rockets was also struck.
Furthermore, the Israeli Air Force struck central manufacturing and storage sites, including a site in the Homs area. This site is the leading facility in Syria’s Scud missile project and is considered one of the most significant infrastructures in Syria’s manufacturing industry, “CERS”.

Joint IDF and ISA Announcement:
The IDF and ISA eliminated a Department Head in Hamas’ Manufacturing Headquarters and a Company Commander in the Zeitoun Battalion
Over the past week, with the direction of IDF and ISA intelligence, the IAF precisely struck and eliminated a Department Head in Hamas’ Manufacturing Headquarters and a Company Commander in the Zeitoun Battalion. These terrorists were operating within a command and control center that previously served as the “Al-Hurriya” School in Gaza City.
Prior to the strike, numerous steps were taken to mitigate the risk of harming civilians, including the use of precise munitions, aerial surveillance, and additional intelligence.
The terrorist Ammar Daloul served as a Department Head in Hamas’ Manufacturing Headquarters and was as a significant source of knowledge for the terrorist organization.
The terrorist Jihad Yassin served as a Company Commander in Hamas’ Zeitoun Battalion and was responsible for attacks on IDF troops operating in the Gaza Strip.
The Zeitoun battalion has been responsible for numerous attacks recently carried out by Hamas against IDF troops operating in the Gaza Strip.
Six additional Hamas terrorists were eliminated in the strike, including a terrorist who infiltrated into Israel on October 7th:
Yahya Masoud Muhammad Ashqar, a Hamas terrorist who infiltrated Israeli territory and participated in the October 7th Massacre.
Kamal Saber Salim Arafat, a terrorist in Hamas’ Military Wing.
Muhammad Muhammad Akram Aaraj, a terrorist in Hamas’ Military Wing
Loay Farid Faiz Hussein Ali, a Hamas Platoon Commander
Imad Aouni Ibrahim Rayan, a terrorist in Hamas’ Military Wing.
Raed Samir Masoud Harazayn, a terrorist in Hamas’ Internal Security Forces
The Hamas terrorist organization systematically violates international law, exploiting the Gazan civilian population as human shields for terrorist activity.
The IDF and ISA will continue to target anyone who took part in terror activities against Israeli civilians.
