218News learned from an informed source that a series of strikes targeting Al-Wataya Airbase on Saturday night were carried out by a French Rafale fighter from about 70 km away.
The same source revealed that the airstrikes targeted two Turkish defense systems that were inside the base, one of which was completely destroyed, while the other wasn’t, indicating that the range of these air systems is 40 km, a difference of 30 km from the range that the base was bombed at.
This is the second time that Al-Wataya airbase has been bombed since the withdrawal of the National Army forces from it on May 18, as witnesses heard in Al-Rajban area explosions and sounds of aircraft over the base 3 days ago.
