Syria: Tensions & Casualties Rise Amid Clashes Between Israel, Iran, Turkey & Syrian Gov’t | Democracy Now!: Tensions across northern Syria have escalated sharply amid a series of clashes between powers, including Israel, Iran, Turkey and the Syrian government. On Saturday, Israel shot down what it claims was an Iranian drone that had entered Israel’s airspace after being launched in Syria. Israel then mounted an attack on an Iranian command center in Syria, from where the drone was launched. One of the Israeli F-16 military jets was then downed by a Syrian government anti-aircraft missile. Israel then carried out a series of retaliatory strikes against both Syrian and Iranian targets in Syria.
