US occupation forces have carried out deadly strikes against Syrian military for the second day in a row, as Washington is scrambling to deter the resistance front’s retaliations against the Israeli regime’s genocide in the besieged Gaza Strip and carnage in southern Lebanon.
Lebanon's al-Mayadeen television network said the American aggression in the early hours of Wednesday hit positions on the outskirts of the city of al-Bukamal in Syria's eastern province of Dayr al-Zawr near the Iraqi border.
The television network said the airstrikes targeted sites of the Syrian army's auxiliary forces in al-Jam'iyat area in the city of al-Bukamal and the al-Bukamal Desert, adding that three people were killed and five others injured.
The US Central Command (CENTCOM) claimed in a statement on its X social media account that the strikes hit a militia group’s “weapons storage and logistics headquarters facility.”
The statement claimed that the airstrikes were in response to a rocket ...
The commander of the Iranian Navy has hailed the force’s comprehensive surveillance over the American warships that sail across regional waters.
“The United States aircraft carrier as well as 16-strong destroyers and frigates that are present in the region are being constantly surveilled by our reconnaissance drones,” Rear Admiral Shahram Irani said on Monday.
“We are over their heads,” he added, referring to the warships in question.

This is a very important fact that we enjoy the capability to surveil the enemy even at sea,” Irani said, noting that this matter had turned into “a cause for concern for the Americans.”
The commander commended the Navy for its having managed to provide security for both...
American and allied forces may directly intervene in the ongoing Ukraine conflict against Russia even without a threat to any member of the US-led NATO military alliance, former US spy chief and Army general David Petraeus has said.
If Russia took some actions in Ukraine that would be “so shocking and so horrific,” it would then prompt a response from the US and other nations, the ex-CIA director projected on Saturday during an interview with France’s weekly magazine, L’Express, noting that they “might react in one way or another, but as a multinational force led by the US and not as a NATO force.”
Petraeus, who also commanded the US occupation forces in Afghanistan from 2010 to 2011, suggested that Washington might form a new coalition of the willing in such a scenario and use it instead of a NATO force to engage against Russia.
He further implied that NATO would remain bound to the terms of the military alliance and would only join the war if one of its members came under ...
