Israel's Doctrine: Make Syrian Airports Pay for Hosting Iran

(Jerusalem Post) Seth Frantzman - Aleppo International Airport was damaged in an airstrike on September 6. Syrian regime media has blamed Israel for airstrikes in Syria over the last month, and Iranian media has reported on the airstrikes. According to satellite images from ImageSat International, the runway of the airport appears out of service. Back in June, Damascus International Airport was also damaged in an airstrike. Tel Aviv University's INSS Managing Director Maj. Gen. (res.) Tamir Hayman commented on the attack on Damascus International Airport, which foreign sources attribute to Israel: "On the strategic level, the operational pressure in Syria is intended to halt Iran's consolidation in Syria and demonstrate to the Syrian regime the cost of hosting the Iranians. On the operational level - three objectives: Work against strategic arms shipments (missiles and UAVs); prevent the transfer of weapons, money, and precision technology to Hizbullah; work against the infrastructure of Shiite militias, whose purpose is to attack Israel."
