SYRIA 

🇸🇾 Syrian Ministry of Defense exploded during Syrian live news report

July 16, 2025 

Israel launches heavy airstrikes in #Damascus, vowing to protect #Druze blowing up part of the defense ministry and hitting near the presidential palace as it vowed to destroy government forces attacking Druze in southern Syria and demanded they withdraw.

The attacks marked a significant Israeli escalation against the Islamist-led administration of interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa and came despite his warming ties with the United States and his administration's evolving security contacts with Israel.
