IDF Destroys Iranian Missile Facility in Syria in Major Ground Operation

Israeli special forces conducted a bold raid on an underground missile factory near Masyaf, dealing a significant blow to Iran and Hezbollah's missile production efforts.

The IDF's elite General Staff Reconnaissance Unit carried out the operation, targeting a facility built by Iran to produce precision missiles.
The raid, described as the IDF's boldest in recent years, involved both airstrikes and ground forces, with Israeli helicopters transporting commandos to the site.
Israeli forces retrieved critical documents and equipment before destroying the facility, which had been under construction since 2018.
The operation resulted in the deaths of several Syrian guards and the capture of important materials, with heavy airstrikes preventing Syrian reinforcements.
The strike comes amid heightened tensions, as Israel prepares for potential conflict with Hezbollah, which has launched numerous attacks on Israel in recent months.
