On condition of anonymity, a well-informed diplomatic source in Beirut has revealed to Al-Monitor details about the Dec. 7 Israeli strike on Syrian sites. The source confirmed that the Israeli Air Force did indeed carry out a dual attack on Syrian territory. Its planes bombed two sites, both of great strategic significance.
The diplomatic source said that the first strike targeted logistical facilities near a small airport in Dimas, just west of Damascus, near the road linking the Syrian and Lebanese capitals, while the second targeted Damascus International Airport.
