Press Service of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) indirectly confirmed that the strike on the military convoy en route from Syria to Lebanon was carried out by Israel. This strike itself is intended to be a warning to the regime of Bashar al-Assad and to Tehran.
Leaders of the Israeli army refuse to disclose the technical details of the strike; however, according to military experts, neither Syrian nor Iranian territory was used for its implementation – the strike was made with the help of new technologies developed by the Israeli RAFAEL concern stationed thousands of miles away from these goals; most likely, from the sea.
The need for such an attack is attributed by foreign military observers to the fact that Assad is trying to send to the Lebanese Shiite terrorist organization "Hezbollah" arsenals of the weapons which he does not currently need, but which are able to hit Israel from Lebanon, including the Israeli gas fields in the Mediterranean Sea. It is primarily about ballistic missiles "Scud D” with flight range of 750 km, capable of carrying a warhead with chemical weapons weighing 1,000 kg (this is a modification of the Russian missiles" Scud " advanced by Syria with funding from Iran); Russian missiles “SA- 17" and "Yakhont "(the latter has a range of 300 km, can be launched low over the water surface of the sea and is extremely difficult to be neutralized by air defense systems), as well as the VX warheads stuffed with chemical weapons.
