“This attack opens up all possibilities of response.”-Omran al Zohbi, Syrian Information Minister

Reports that Israel hit Russian missiles coming from U.S. backed insurgents.   Several insurgent groups were in the area near the main IDF strike on Sunday.  At least two insurgent groups said the missiles attacked were Russian anti-aircraft missiles.

“Several civilian factories and buildings were destroyed. The target was just an ordinary weapons warehouse. The bombing is an ultimatum to us, it had no strategic motivation.”-unnamed Syrian government official

Syrian leaders are reportedly in closed door meetings.  The Sunday IDF main strike area just happened to be the same location where multiple U.S. backed insurgent groups launched an offensive.  After the IDF strikes, those same insurgents continued their attacks.  Syrian officials believe the IDF strike was not after missiles, but was a major air support operation by Israel.

“There was no valuable equipment at the site. It was all removed after a previous attack on the facility. The military losses from this are negligible.“-unnamed Syrian government official

Reports from Lebanon that Syria is now targeting Israeli missile sites.

Russian media sources say the munitions Israel used against Syria contain toxic depleted uranium.
