The Israeli army has reported carrying out new strikes on two military bases in central Syria. This announcement came on Tuesday, a day after European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas warned against further escalation in the region.

According to an official statement on Telegram, Israeli forces targeted the remaining military assets at the Tadmor (Palmyra) and T4 air bases, located approximately 50 kilometers west of Palmyra. This follows a previous attack on the same sites last Friday. The Israeli army reiterated its commitment to eliminating any threats to its citizens.

During her visit to Jerusalem on Monday, Kallas urged restraint, emphasizing that military actions should remain proportionate. She warned that Israeli strikes in Syria and Lebanon could fuel further escalation. Kallas also argued that these attacks were unnecessary, as Syria had not been engaged in offensive actions against Israel at the time. She expressed concerns that such operations contribute to radicalization, which could ultimately threaten Israel itself. After her remarks, she traveled to the occupied West Bank to meet Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.

Since the fall of Bashar al-Assad’s regime in December, Israel has conducted numerous strikes on military sites formerly controlled by the Syrian government. Israeli authorities claim these operations are aimed at preventing weapons from falling into the hands of the new Syrian leadership, which Israel labels as "jihadist."

Additionally, the Israeli army has deployed troops in the demilitarized zone of the Syrian Golan Heights, an area partially occupied by Israel since 1967 and officially annexed in 1981.

Meanwhile, Syria’s new government has condemned the Israeli attacks, calling them part of a broader campaign against the Syrian people and the country's stability.
