Close-Up Moment: Israeli Airstrike Hits Damascus Army HQ—People Flee in Panic | 1 Killed, 18 Injured
A deafening Israeli airstrike has struck the heart of Damascus, causing panic as people run for cover in the streets.
The Syrian Ministry of Health confirms that at least one person was killed and 18 others injured in the deadly attack targeting key areas near the Ministry of Defense building.
The aftermath shows widespread destruction, with parts of the building and nearby streets reduced to rubble.
This latest strike marks a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Syria, raising fears of further violence in the volatile region.
Stay tuned for more updates and in-depth analysis on this unfolding crisis.
Following a dramatic Israeli airstrike on Syria’s General Staff Headquarters in Damascus, U.S. Senator Marco Rubio called the escalation a “misunderstanding” and claimed de-escalation could be just hours away. The strike came amid sectarian clashes in the southern Syrian city of Sweida, where Israel says it’s intervening to protect the Druze community.
With the death toll rising and fears of a broader conflict growing, the U.S. confirmed it is in continuous talks with both Syrian and Israeli officials. Meanwhile, U.S. envoy Tom Barrack condemned violence against civilians and called for immediate dialogue and a lasting ceasefire. Is this the brink of regional war—or a chance for diplomacy to prevail?

Mass protests erupted in Damascus as Syrian citizens gathered outside parliament, chanting “Stop killing our people” in a show of defiance against Israeli airstrikes and escalating sectarian violence.
The demonstration follows deadly Israeli strikes on the Syrian Army General Staff headquarters in Damascus, which Israel claims were a response to the government's failure to protect the Druze minority in Sweida. Protesters are calling for an end to both foreign intervention and internal bloodshed, demanding peace and accountability.
This comes as nearly 250 people have reportedly died in clashes between Syrian government forces, Islamist fighters, and Druze militias in recent days.
