    Default Israel-Iran tensions SURGE as Israel launch supersonic Rampage missiles on Syria

    The attack allegedly hit a potential Iranian surface-to-surface missile factory in Masyaf. Satellite images captured by Israeli intelligence firm ImageSat International (ISI) reportedly show the destruction of the factory, the Jerusalem Post reported.

    Rampage missiles were developed by Israel Aerospace Industries as an air-to-ground missile with precision targeting.

    Amit Haimovich, marketing director for IAI, told JPost: “The Rampage can be detected but it is very hard to intercept.

    “If you take the Middle East arena and areas protected by air defence systems, the whole point of this missile is that it can target within standoff ranges.”

    The new missile can be fitted to Israel Air Force’s F-15, F-16 and F-35 fighter jets.

    The 4.7-metre missile is guided by a GPS system.

    Masyaf (Arabic: مصياف Miṣyāf) is a city in northwestern Syria

    was this an Iranian position in Syria?

    Iranian surface-to-surface missile factory in Masyaf.

    maggot- just where did ' The Jerusalem Post ' report on this massive attack that isn't evident in ' The Jerusalem Post ' ?
    You sure that your ' Express ' isn't reporting on a Rupert Murdoch wet dream ?

    Apart from you, who else is slavering at the thought of Izrael-Iran tensions "SURGING" ? Are they " SURGING " quietly ?

    Here is the report in the Jerusalem Post. It says that the missile factory was surrounded by S-300 missile batteries, maybe they should have used Duracell?

    Let's get it straight then, maggot. Your ' Express ' has made a ' reality ' out of last week's Jerusalem Post speculations . For this you emphasize SURGING hostilities between Izrael and Iran in an embarrassing display of maggoty attention-seeking ?


    Haw, haw............haw.

    You're looking desperate, maggot. Getting a " SURGE " are you ? Haw, haw.........haw.

    Izrael is always launching attacks on its neighbors from Lebanese airspace. The one you're trying to inflate into WW3 on behalf of the neoZionist assholes almost destroyed Masyaf National Hospital.

    For this you want your pet terrorists congratulated already ?

    From the article:

    April 21, 2019

    At 2:30 in the morning on April 13, 2019, around a dozen missiles tore over the night sky of Hama province, Syria, launched by Israeli F-16 jets flying over Lebanon. In response, short-range Syrian air missiles arced into the night sky trailing plumes of fire from their rocket motors. One or two can be seen exploding mid-air, possibly having have hit their target. However, as has happened in over 200 other Israeli air strikes on targets in Syria, the defensive fire proved inadequate. The weapons struck three Syrian targets.

    The first was a training base called the “Academy.” A second site was reportedly a storage facility for surface-to-surface missile launchers located near the Masyaf National Hospital. Afterward, the pro-Assad Al-Masdar news agency published a picture of an annihilated M-600 Tishereen ballistic missile launcher. The M-600 is a Syrian license-manufactured version of the Iranian Fateh-110 short-range ballistic missile, a type Tehran has used for missile strikes on targets in Syria, Iraq and Israel since 2017.

    The third and hardest hit site was a missile manufacturing facility belonging to the Syrian Scientific Studies and Research Center near Masyaf, Syria. The SSSRC is dedicated to procuring sanctioned chemical weapons and ballistic missile technology from abroad for Damascus. The gated facility, for which you can see a satellite photo here, adjoined two compounds believed to house Syrian and Iranian troops.

    Yes, and seemingly they position them next to facilities like hospitals, like Hamas and Hezbollah.

    I see the S-300 was absolutely no help - these are difficult to intercept stand off that overwhelmed those batteries

    Nah- even the S-300, an outdated system, scored hits.
    What should happen now are some retaliatory strikes on Dimona.

    Might as well use Lebanese airspace- just like the aggressors.
