The first Iranian attack on Syria after Bashar al-Assad ✍🏼 Reza Ghabishavi Asr Iran 🔹For the first time after the fall of Bashar al-Assad 19 months ago, Iran attacked an area in Syrian territory. 🔹The IRGC announced that it targeted the American military base in al-Tanf, Syria. The IRGC added that in this attack, radar systems and several helicopters were destroyed and many American forces were killed. 🔹Al-Tanf is in southeastern Syria, near the borders of Iraq and Jordan. Americans stationed at this base since 2016. The distance from Iran to al-Tanf, Syria is about 800 kilometers. No officials in Syria or the United States have reacted yet. 🔹Since 18 Azar 1403, when the regime of Bashar al-Assad fell due to an attack by opponents and he fled to Russia, this is the first attack launched by Iran against an area in Syria. 🔹During Bashar al-Assad’s rule, Iran had at least 3 missile attacks against ISIS positions in Syria. 🔹Since the start of the 40-day war, Iran has targeted American bases, energy centers, and other locations in the countries of Syria, Jordan, Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, the UAE, and Oman.
