Israel launched over 20 airstrikes across Syria on May 2, targeting military sites near Damascus, Hama, and Daraa, in what has been called the heaviest assault this year. The strikes followed a drone attack in Sweida that killed four Druze fighters and clashes that left over 100 dead. The UN condemned the strikes near Syria’s presidential palace, and Germany voiced deep concern over sectarian tensions. Syrian state media blamed Israel, while the IDF vowed to continue defending its citizens. 00:00 – INTRODUCTION02:37 – DRONE STRIKE KILLS FOUR DRUZE FIGHTERS IN SYRIA03:51 – UN CONDEMNS ISRAELI STRIKE NEAR SYRIA PRESIDENTIAL PALACE04:40 – GERMANY VOICES ‘DEEP CONCERN’ OVER SECTARIAN CLASHES IN SYRIAn18oc_world n18oc_crux
