Israel Targets Syrian Chemical Sites Amid Assad's Fall

Israel has confirmed conducting air strikes on Syria, targeting suspected chemical weapons and missile sites to prevent them from reaching extremists. This follows the recent overthrow of Bashar al-Assad's regime by Syrian rebel forces, including Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, who have captured Damascus. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu described the regime's collapse as a historic event and expressed a desire for peaceful relations with new Syrian forces, while maintaining a defensive stance in the Golan Heights.
