Assuming on the talk of the targets being #IRGC related, we are probably looking at the Al-Kiswah area of #Damascus, and southern Damascus in general.
#Israel|i media are talking of sites that haven’t been targeted before, taking this into account it removes the usual suspects of Damascus Intl. Airport with the Glass House. Will check them as usual, just incase.
If this was in any way related to the Helios Ray event, I would suspect a statement to be officially made by the IDF, similar to the strikes in November 2020.
Videos show footage of Air Defense active over Western #Damascus, around Al-Mezzah Airport (assumed location), this was from 4th Division. The area struck in the last reported IDF airstrikes.
AOI. Just an insight into how I work through things for post analysis, Possibility is there that they are all wrong, but it’s just how I work through things.
Some digging between @obretix and I, video from tonight shows the Sayyidah Zaynab Mosque, taking into the account the moon position from this location, appears one strike area appears to be region of #Damascus Intl. Airport.
double appears, clearly bed time…
Rough scope area, it’s most likely slightly (and more) off, but gives something to help dig into when satellite imagery is available.
Depending on the satellite imagery times today we may not get a clear view of Damascus and the surrounding areas because of clouds. I’ll keep checking.
As suspected clouds, imagery courtesy of @sentinel_hub. Might be able to see something through them, maybe depending on what was struck so i’ll have a gander.

Air Raid Sirens are currently sounding in Shahr Ara and Marzdaran areas, western #Tehran. Cause currently unknown.
If you are seeing an news circulating of two fires being located on satellite imagery, ye….. no, ignore it.
The air raid sirens reportedly rang for at least 15 minutes… @flightradar24 shows the current air traffic around #Tehran, #Iran at the moment. Intersting flight path for the Turkish Airlines flight.
An unknown IED blast has detonated outside Jindal House, several metres away from #Israel|i Embassy near Jindal House, #NewDelh, #India, 3 cars have been damage. The IED was hidden near the pavement. Situation unfolding, will updated accordingly
Initial reports of several explosions heard near #Baghdad Intl. Airport, #Iraq
“Incoming” sirens heard at Camp Victory due to the unknown explosions. Multiple #PMU channels are reporting rocket fire towards the US Base there, however no evidence of this yet.
Thread: In the early hours of yesterday morning (22nd Jan. 2021) #Syria|n State Media confirmed that SAA Air Defense was engaging "hostile targets" over Syria. The early reports indicated multiple explosions across Damascus, Hama, Tartus and Safita region.
This appeared at the time to be a rather large, wide scale airstrike. After the event was over questions begun to be raised by a lot of observers focusing on Syria and the ME about the event. Latter that day news started to circulate confirming that Unknown Missile pieces had...
been found in #Jordan and near Al-Qadmus, #Syria, a wide area, later in the day, S-200 pieces near Damascus were found and also a Pantsir-S1 booster near Masyaf. It was weird, and I know I wasn't the only one that was thinking it was odd for all this AD to be "all over the place"
Last nights reported airstrike in #Syria is odd, from the reports it's slightly different, AD reportedly fired from 2 confirmed and maybe a third Governorate. Also very little details on the actual target site itself, which I think may be a new site.
OK, i've done the usual and mapped out some potential AOI. I'll share again as I go along once the imagery starts coming in.
Initial and horribly shown thoughts, the reports are that the reported airstrike came from over Tripoli, Lebanon. AD from Tartus and Masyaf/Hama area so thoughts are the potential strike location is in the yellow box area. Of course, I could be wrong, but thinking aloud here.
