Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz defended recent airstrikes on regime targets in Suweida and Damascus, stating they were necessary to protect the Druze community in Syria. The attacks were described as a response to ongoing violence against Druze individuals, with Katz emphasizing the importance of Israel's military presence in the region.
Katz remarked, "Those who criticize the attacks are not well-versed in the facts," asserting that the government's policy in Syria is both correct and responsible in safeguarding the Druze population.
