Damascus rocked by explosions at suspected Iran-linked missile stockpile I Oneindia News
Loud explosions were heard around Damascus early today morning, amid reports of suspected Israeli air strikes around the capital.
Several war monitors on social media said the explosions were probably Israeli air strikes, after at least 22 Israeli air attacks on Syria this year so far.
The state-linked Sana news outlet reported the explosions but said the cause was currently unclear, while several images on social media showed a large fiery blast, said to be in Qudsaya.
Qudsaya is a neighbourhood on the edge of the capital that has been the target of several Israeli air strikes in recent years.
Spain denied port access to a Danish ship carrying 27 tons of explosives from Chennai to Haifa, Israel, citing the need for peace in the Middle East over more weapons. Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares emphasized this new policy amid the ongoing Gaza conflict, which began on October 7. Spain has also halted arms sales to Israel and urged EU capitals to recognize Palestine.

Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian announced that the crew of a Portuguese-flagged ship, allegedly linked to Israel and including Indian nationals, has been granted consular access and is expected to be released. This information, reported by Reuters citing Iranian media, sheds light on the situation surrounding the container vessel MSC Aries, which had a crew of 25 members, including 17 Indians. Notably, one of the Indian crew members, Ann Tessa Joseph, was released and returned home on April 18. The seizure of MSC Aries by Iran's Revolutionary Guards occurred in the Strait of Hormuz on April 13, shortly after Tehran declared its intent to retaliate for a suspected Israeli strike on its consulate in Damascus.

In an internal investigation, the Pentagon on Thursday admitted that American forces had misidentified an intended al Qaeda target during a drone strike in Syria in 2023, killing a civilian in the process. Citing classified material, the U.S. Central Command stated in a statement that it was unable to disclose many investigational details to the public. Although the strike complied with U.S. policy and the law of armed conflict, the investigation "uncovered several areas that could be strengthened."

France's foreign minister announced plans to engage in discussions with Lebanese officials on Sunday to address tensions between Hezbollah and Israel and prevent potential conflict. Earlier this year, Foreign Minister Stephane Sejourne proposed a plan that involves Hezbollah pulling back 10 km from the Israeli border while Israel halts strikes in southern Lebanon. This proposal, discussed with partners including the U.S., aims to maintain momentum amid Israeli threats of military action in southern Lebanon. Tensions have escalated, particularly following Iran's missile strikes on Israel in response to events in Syria, leading to increased exchanges between Israel and Hezbollah.
