3:47 pm
just some decent rain in pakistan is heading to northern india as well to the west so that there is more cloud it's probably just cloud which by monday was sweeping across iraq any precipitation for rain is in turkey and snow in the high ground of turkey which i think will make progress still in the high ground turkey moving eastwards wells through monday night and by choosing it's probably gone so the couple of fine looking days the levant syria iraq and areas such as beirut up to about seventeen degrees so it's slightly warmer as well still cold at night there fairly obviously the temperatures are slowly recovering well nice inside a saudi in qatar as well twenty two as a max the winds to the north a little becoming much lighter about turning it to choose to nothing much in the sky a reacts quite warm at twenty five by the time we have in the mozambique channel a proper new unnamed cycler and it's named number ten can you believe anyway it's light to make landfall in central mozambique sharing monday the winds may not be much of a problem but the amount of writing the next two days yes probably widespread
3:48 pm
problems. whether someone saying. it's how you approach a. story in. israel takes a mediterranean military targets in syria killing at least four syrian soldiers. alone down in jordan this is a lawyer from doha also coming up the u.s.
3:49 pm
and turkey discuss the withdrawal of american troops in syria i would encourage ready to take over security in the kurdish town of. seeking peace voters in the southern philippines cast their ballots in a referendum aimed at ending a decades long conflict. lore is sounding the death knell for taiwan's ailing traditional medicine in the street. for syrian soldiers have been killed after israel launched an strikes on iranian targets in syria a video posted to social media purports to show missiles intercepted near damascus russia says during those airstrikes early on monday morning syrian military air defenses destroyed more than thirty cruise missiles and guided bombs on sunday israel said it intercepted a rocket fired at the golan heights from syria army forces report some in southern israel. well in a highly unusual move the israeli military is confirming that strikes have been
3:50 pm
taking place against targets inside syria as the operation has been going on the movie is saying that it's striking iranian could forces targets inside syrian territory and it is warning the syrian armed forces against striking against israeli military targets or against israeli territory the syrian state media is saying that its forces have fought in what it calls hostile targets over syrian air space now the immediate background to all this is what took place during the course of sunday there were reports of an israeli strike or strikes in and around damascus again syrian state media saying that it had struck against those strikes as they came in and then shortly after that there was a report of at least one if not more projectiles being fired from syrian territory towards israeli territory in the reports were that they were ground to ground projectiles surface to surface missiles potentially now that is relatively uncommon
3:51 pm
what is more common is for syrian anti-aircraft fire to potentially. and to towards israeli air space of yes space over israeli occupied golan heights and there was speculation that there might well be an israeli response to a potential ground to ground attack the slightly longer look at this in terms of the background is what took place the previous weekend when there was an air strike against targets inside syria on the friday and by the sunday israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu was publicly owning up to that in fact saying that it was a vital military operation and that such efforts may well intensify during that weekend as well his outgoing military chief of staff got the eyes and caught all but lifting the entire veil of israeli ambiguity on its strikes inside syria over several years now. it was saying that this had been a successful operation against iranian targets inside that country and there had
3:52 pm
been speculation at that time that this lifting of the ambiguity policy may well give the syrians the iranians cause to strike more directly at israel now that israel had owned up exactly and publicly to what it was doing but ariel cohen is a senior fellow with the atlantic council he says israel will continue to launch air strikes in syria. israel warned for a long time that you will react to the continuous supply of the advanced iranian weapons specifically smart bombs and missiles to hizbullah the iranian fully own subsidiary in lebanon and despite the fact that israel is as they said hit thousands of targets that process is still continuing. the russians promised israel that they will make sure that the arrangements are moved away from the
3:53 pm
israeli cities for a line in the golan the russians could not deliver on their promises because if israelis are getting the iranian targets in the damascus airport this is much less than eighty kilometers from the golan and also it means that the russians are not one hundred percent controlling what's going on in lebanon there is a new chief of staff to haave is just new in the job he is probably changing policies and they're making very clear that they insist that iran stopped supplying offensive rockets to his ball of the threaten israeli civilians this is all about homeland security of all and defense for israel iran after all is over a thousand kilometers away that theater does not threaten the iranian population it
