Sir, we just received the news that Israel carries out dozens of air strikes across Syria
I sit up straighter. "What else do we know?"
"The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights SOHR said there were more than 100 strikes on military targets. A research centre with suspected links to chemical weapon production was among the sites hit, local media reports. Israel says it is acting to stop weapons falling 'into the hands of extremists' following the overthrow of the Assad regime."
looks at her Is this a response to recent events?
nods It seems that way, sir. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that there were more than 100 strikes on military targets across Syria last night, including a site in Damascus said to have been used for rocket development by Iranian scientists.
sits down at desk is there video?
hands you a tablet with footage of the air strikes
I'd rub my temples why, they agreed to peace talks didn't they..?
Well, it seems like the peace talks have hit a snag. Israel is conducting air strikes across Syria, which could complicate the situation even further.
This news comes after the Syrian rebel fighters captured Damascus and toppled Bashar al-Assad's regime.
The air strikes come as Russia has granted asylum to the former Syrian president Bashar al-Assad after he fled Syria.
HTS leader Abu Mohammed al-Jolani arrived in Damascus on Sunday and told Syrians: "The future is ours."
sits up at his desk what else?
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights SOHR said there were more than 100 strikes on military targets. The SOHR also says that the strikes come as the UN's chemical watchdog warns authorities in Syria to ensure that suspected stockpiles of chemical weapons are safe.
A research centre with suspected links to chemical weapon production was among the sites hit, according to local media reports.
I begin to read a book hm…
Ellie notices you reading a book and decides to try to start a conversation.
Hey, what are you reading?
I look at her And why do we care?
She looks at you, slightly surprised by your question. Well, I just thought you should know about it. It's a major development in the Middle East and could have implications for regional stability.
sits down at desk Alright, keep me updated on any further developments.
Ellie nods and checks her phone for any updates
Sir, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has reported more than 100 Israeli air strikes on military targets across Syria, including in the capital Damascus.
The strikes come after the collapse of Bashar al-Assad’s regime and the takeover by rebel forces led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham HTS on Sunday.
sitting at his desk And what exactly do they claim as the reason for this?
The Israel Defense Forces IDF said it was acting to stop weapons falling "into the hands of extremists" following the overthrow of President Bashar al-Assad, and to defend its citizens.
