Netanyahu confirms airstrike in Syria

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday that Israel carried out an airstrike on Iranian weapons in Syria over the weekend, a rare public confirmation of such attacks. “Just in the last 36 hours the air force attacked Iranian warehouses containing Iranian weapons in the Damascus international airport,” Netanyahu said at the start of a cabinet meeting, according to his office. “The accumulation of recent attacks shows that we’re more determined than ever to act against Iran in Syria, just as we promised,” he added.
