Report: Israeli raid hits Syrian missile site on Syria-Lebanon border

Something doesn't quite smell right about this (an article dated Saturday describing a report from Thursday and I had not seen it on Twitter until about two minutes ago), but take it for what it's worth. The report claims an IAF strike on a Syrian missile facility along the Syrian-Lebanese border.

An overnight Israeli raid has hit a missile depot in the strategic western Syrian region of al-Qalamoun, Al Arabiya News’ sister channel Al Hadath reported Thursday.

Qalamoun is located near the region bordering Lebanon.

Sources also told Al Hadath that two Israeli raids had on Wednesday targeted a convoy carrying arms belonging to Lebanese Shiite militant group Hezbollah.

This is apparently the same area in which Hezbullah has an airstrip on the Lebanese side of the border. Hmmm.

I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004.
