Israel carried out 480 strikes on Syria to wipe out the remnants of the Assad regime's military.

The Israeli Air Force carried out about 480 strikes targeting most of the country's strategic weapon stockpiles.

About 350 of the strikes were crewed aircraft targeting Syrian military assets, including aircraft, ammunition depots, storage facilities, and missile and radar systems.

Israeli officials said the extensive strikes were intended to prevent the Assad government's military infrastructure from being used by extremists and potential foes.

The Barzeh facility was bombed in 2018 by US , UK , and French forces in response to a poison sarin gas attack in Douma , Syria .

The US found Assad 's government responsible for the April 2018 chemical warfare attack that killed at least 40 people and injured over 100 .

The fall of the Syrian regime weakens Iran 's regional influence.
