Part 4/9:
Amidst the chaos, Israel has taken assertive steps to safeguard its borders and prevent weapons from falling into hostile hands. Since Sunday, Israel has intensified strikes on chemical weapons facilities and missile systems within Syria. Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar made it clear that these actions are driven by security concerns, aiming to prevent chemical weapons, long-range missiles, and rockets from being captured by radicals.
