On October 10, 2024, Israeli airstrikes struck multiple sites in Syria, including a car factory in the central province of Homs and military positions in Hama. Syrian state media reported that the strikes resulted in significant material damage, igniting a fire at the factory, which was described as an 'Iranian car factory' by the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
The attacks also targeted vehicles loaded with medical and relief supplies, raising concerns about the humanitarian implications of the strikes. Additionally, explosions were reported in Daraa, indicating a broader scope of the military action.
Israel has not publicly commented on these specific strikes, which form part of its ongoing military operations in Syria aimed at countering Iranian influence in the region.
