SYRIA: Israel destroyed radar station newly rebuilt by Iran

Reports: A radar station in southern Syria was destroyed two months after it was rebuilt by Iran. what's behind it?

Local sources in southern Syria reported that Israeli aircraft attacked with two missiles the radar battalion at Betel al-Masih - Tel Masih near the city of Sahab in the northern region of Sweida district, which led to the destruction of the radar station and the hangar adjacent to it that was built a short time ago on the site.

The site of the radar station was attacked in two flights, ten minutes apart, and the attack resulted in the destruction of the system again (after it was restored two months ago and returned to work), with no casualties among the Syrian army forces, as reported by the news network "Sweida 24".

Sources in the know stated that this site was bombed by Israel about a year ago, which led to the radar being disabled, but about two months ago, the Syrian forces finished its renovation and returned it to work and also built a new hangar in the battalion.

The Syrian Ministry of Defense did not respond to the attack and the destruction of the radar, and its media did not report this news either, except for what was reported by the Lebanese "Al-Mayadeen" channel about the fact that the Betel Al-Masih radar battalion was bombed by Israel.

During the last month, Israeli warplanes launched several airstrikes on the positions of Syrian army forces in the Sweida district in the south of the country.

Most of the attacks were aimed at radar systems at the airports of Holkhola, Al-Tu'ala, Tal Kalib - Tel Qalib and the Tel Al Kharouf - Tal Kharouf battalion.

The purpose of the Israeli attacks that caused the destruction of the radar stations in southern Syria were to "blind" the Syrian army and their Iranian colleagues so that they would not see the attack wave of Israeli planes, which came immediately after, which were on their way to Iraqi territory to bomb many targets on Iranian soil.
For more than ten years, Israel has been attacking Iran-related targets in Syria from the air, but these attacks have escalated since the outbreak of the war in the Gaza Strip in October 2023, and escalated even more with the war that Israel is waging against Lebanon. 

A note in the background of the news: From what is said in the above article, it can be understood that Israel does not allow the Iranians to restore the aerial warning system they established on Syrian soil, which was intended to warn them of Israeli attack planes making their way towards Iran.

Since the heavy Israeli counterattack against targets in Iran, Tehran has been threatening to respond severely to the Israeli attack. Therefore, it is only understandable that Israel leaves the road towards Iran open, after Israel promised that if Iran reacts again against targets in Israel, it will launch another attack that will be much more destructive than its second attack on Iran.

To remind you, Israel's first attack on Iran, after it launched close to 200 missiles and UAVs at Israel, was defined in Israel as a "painless attack" and did not achieve the necessary deterrence, which forced Israel to launch a second attack on Iran, and this time the results were relatively severe in the field.
