3:06 am
and israel and then on to jordan has been very forceful when it comes to iran saying that the country is one of the biggest sponsors of terrorism in the world very forceful again saying that president trump hasn't made a decision but is willing to walk away from the iran nuclear deal if it cannot be fixed but we're getting some breaking news coming out of syria where the state television center is saying that rockets have struck several military bases and hama on the aleppo countryside but the army is calling it a new aggression by its enemies state media had earlier reported of successive blasts heard in the west and hama province iranian forces all stationed in the area while there as man. is in syria's aleppo province and when i can stand this mohamed lama now going through one of the strongest attacks on the military civilians in aleppo described hearing a huge explosion and their description is in line with what the state is saying the
3:07 am
first of the airstrikes killed eight people at military posts in the aleppo countryside but we haven't heard a full tally of deaths from the military yet it is clear the explosions were massive and the equipment used was sophisticated it is only like the strikes carried out by the western trio which had minimal damage what is clear is that the syrian military. still being targeted and this was a big hit after the u.s. led air strikes one. hundred times is a syria expert on the washington institute for near east policy joins me now from washington d.c. on skype good to have you with us live on al-jazeera who do you think is behind this rocket attack. it seems as if it's israeli strike is yet to be confirmed but the targets in the recent history of israel bombing inside of syria just soused responsible we are talking certainly in general terms of where we think these missiles have struck in hama the aleppo countryside why specifically these
3:08 am
locations are they talk to toward specific groups these are bases bases for iran and regime forces inside syria iranian forces are spread out throughout the country they are in backers of bashar al assad on the ground and israel has launched a new target. as they spread throughout the country we've seen recent attacks on syrian territory the syrians accusing the israelis such violations can we expect that situation to escalate. well this is these bombings rocket attacks what have you been going on for several months and i think you're going to continue with iran and its proxies against israel allies in what way do you see how much of a coincidence is that these attacks are happening if it is the israelis while my
3:09 am
pump a was in the region. well it could be equated it could also be a part of his sense that the u.s. is very disturbed about iran. talked about that they got we got countries in the middle east i think maybe the difference with this investigation is they feel more comfortable with regional allies such as israel if you delete it. in terms of the long term strategy that israel would have on this situation can they continue to keep attacking syria while syria is so fractured or as i've sort of suggested before can we expect a response from the syrian regime. syrian regime i have a hard time responding how it could be very difficult i think we have to watch and see if iran responds in what way. now israel has room to maneuver
