Escalation continues between Israel and Iran in Syrian airspace

Meanwhile, loud explosions were heard in the desert areas east of Sweida, likely the result of ballistic missile interception in the area.

Meanwhile, intense Israeli fighter jet overflights were observed in the area, generating panic among residents.

This airpspace escalation comes amid growing tension between Iran and Israel, with Syrian airspace, especially in the south, becoming the scene of almost daily clashes between the two sides.
