An unverified regional intelligence source reported that Israeli forces are increasing the raids to be conducted in Syria when all the world's attention is on the coronavirus pandemic.
When asked about increase raids during this period, the Israeli spokesperson chose not to comment on the matter.
Western intelligence sources stated that Iranian backed militias have been active and well placed in the Aleppo province, which has their bases including a command centre with advanced weapons, as a segment of the government-controlled Syria.
One of these suspected centers like the Scientific Studies and Research Center is one of several facilities where western intelligence and opposition sources think that Syria is involved in creating heinous weapons. The projects are developing chemical weapons they accuse Syria of deploying against anyone opposed to them.
Syria and their Russian allies say they have used such chemical weapons that are outlawed, and have killed non-combatants that included elderly, women, children during the 9-year war. They use the rebels as scapegoats for chemical warfare.
Yoram Schweitzer of Israel's Institute for National Security Studies relayed to AFP news, that the Jewish state is just reacting to more hostile action from Iran and Hezbollah.
Another reason is that Israel is turning the screws on their adversaries to survive the coronavirus crisis better.
Referring to Israel's anti-Iran policy, Schweitzer said,"don't know which one of the two it is, but might be a combination of the two."
There will be more Israeli aircraft pounding Syria positions and centre, that will be seen.
