Where they diverge

  • The nature and justification of the strike

    • Al Jazeera: The Israeli military confirmed the strike, saying in a statement that it had targeted “a terrorist who advanced terror attacks in their final stages of preparation” in southern Syria. The activity “posed an immediate threat to our forces”.
    • The Straits Times: Israel carried out a fresh strike in Syria on Aug 22 and lambasted US envoy Tom Barrack for criticising an earlier attack on an air base in the north-west, which Israel has accused Turkey of seeking to use.

  • The outcome of the strike

    • Al Jazeera: Syria’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates said in a statement that Saturday’s strike resulted in several civilian injuries. It said it “condemns in the strongest terms” the targeting of a “civilian vehicle” by an Israeli drone.
    • The Straits Times: The report mentions an earlier attack on a disused military air base, but does not detail the outcome of the strike on Aug 22.
