Just when the eyes of the world are focused on the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the Middle East issue has escalated again, and the conflict between Israel and Iran has begun.
The situation in the Middle East is already unpredictable, and the conflict between Israel and Iran has made the situation in the Middle East more complicated and tense.
On 1 April, five Iranian Revolutionary Guard soldiers, including a senior military officer, were tragically killed in an air strike, which was carried out by Israel.
In fact, Israel began launching airstrikes on Iranian strongholds in Syria two days ago, and Israel launched missile strikes on Syria in the early hours of the morning, targeting the outskirts of the Syrian capital.
Why did Israel launch air strikes on the outskirts of the Syrian capital for two days in a row? Just trying to deter them? The answer is obviously no, they don't spend time and energy doing things that don't make sense, and it's clear that Israel is going with a clear goal.
In fact, according to the statement issued by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, it can be seen that the five soldiers killed in the air strike include a senior officer, so Israel's target is most likely the senior officer, because killing ordinary soldiers is a waste of ammunition for Israel.
Israel's ability to launch an attack on a location for two consecutive days also shows that they had accurate information about the senior officer and that Israel would not have dared to launch such a heavy attack on a location unless it had to strike until his death.
The senior Iranian officer, Millad Haidari, was killed in an airstrike on March 31. In response to this incident, Iran's Revolutionary Self-Defense Forces said they would respond, and repeatedly stressed that the Israeli air strike was a criminal attack.
In addition to the death of this senior officer, Iran's stronghold in Syria has also suffered heavy damage in many ways, such as a large number of casualties and damage to buildings, and the Israeli air strike has caused heavy losses to Iran.
It is worth noting that this air strike is not the first Israeli attack on Iran.
A dozen days ago, a senior Iranian commander was assassinated and killed on the outskirts of the Syrian capital, and the location of the assassination incident and the location of this air strike basically coincided, and combined with this air strike, it is difficult not to think of it.
In addition, according to the Iranian investigation, the Israeli intelligence agency was involved in the assassination, and combined with the above information, it can be basically concluded that the assassination was orchestrated by Israel.
But in the face of this incident, Israel's attitude is still very strange, Israel has remained silent as usual, neither acknowledging nor explicitly denying.
In fact, combining these two incidents, it can be seen that Israel's targeting of Iran is no accident, and the assassination incident and air strike will not be the first and will not be the last.
Israel's attacks on Syria date back to the outbreak of the Syrian war in 2011, and Israel has launched hundreds of attacks on Syrian territory since the outbreak of the war.
Israel has always been wary of Iran's military and other aspects of strength and the increase of influence in the Middle East, but has not clearly stated that it will take any action, so Israel has always remained silent about the attacks, neither acknowledging nor denying.
In the face of Israeli attacks, Iran will not always be a "gas bag". In fact, Iran has always been resolutely fighting against power, especially in the more than ten years since the outbreak of war, Iran has gradually begun to develop independently, and its strength in all aspects has increased significantly.
In the face of Iran's gradual rise, Israel cannot sit still, weakening its power and influence in the Middle East by launching attacks on Iran.
Israel's special geographical location and religious beliefs also show from the side that it will not be a peaceful place after all.
Take Jerusalem, the capital of Israel, a small city with a population of only about 800,000 is a holy place for the three major religions of Christianity, Judaism and Islam.
Israel's land is located on the Mediterranean coast, close to many Arab countries, and since the establishment of the State of Israel after World War II, large and small contradictions have not stopped.
In addition to Israel, there is another country worth noting, and that is the United States. The United States was already in action long before Israel launched airstrikes on Syria.
U.S. bases in Syria were unidentified and in response, the United States launched several airstrikes against pro-Iranian groups.
U.S. airstrikes on Syria and Israeli airstrikes on Syria may seem unrelated, but when you think about it, it doesn't seem like that.
First of all, the timing of the two events is very close, after the United States launched air strikes on Syria, Israel followed, is it too much of a coincidence?
A closer look at the events in early March reveals that a top U.S. military general visited a U.S. military base in Syria, and it was not a public visit, it was done in secret. Soon after, another senior U.S. official visited the U.S. military base, followed by a visit to Israel.
Two senior US officials inspected the US military base one after another, and then the US military base was attacked unaccounted for, which is obviously abnormal.
Normal people would think that this was a premeditated incident in order to launch an attack on Iran, but there was a lack of a specific reason before.
Judging from Iran's reaction, Israel's attack on Iran's stronghold in Syria may have completely annoyed Iran, and Iran has made it clear that it wants to respond, which means that the war will fly again in this already unpeaceful region.
The situation in the Middle East is like a powder keg, and even a little spark can cause a devastating explosion. No matter what the scale of the war, it is the innocent people at the bottom who suffer the most, which is also the inevitable consequence of the war.
