(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - "The resistance front is ready for confrontation with Israel and will open the doors of hell to the regime," Secretary-General of Lebanon's Naseri Independent Movement Mustafa Hamdan told FNA on Monday.
He said that the recent Israeli bombing of Syria should be studied within the framework of its animosity towards the resistance front which is stretched from Tehran to Damascus, Beirut and the Palestinian territories.
Hamdan underlined that Israel attacked Syria to retaliate against the Syrian Army's destruction of the Zionist regime's secret units in Syria and also the killing of terrorists and saboteurs.
Last Sunday, Syria said the Israeli regime had carried out an airstrike targeting a research center in a suburb of Damascus after heavy losses were inflicted on al-Qaeda-affiliated groups by the Syrian army. According to Syrian media reports, Israeli rockets struck the Jamraya research center.
Syria's Foreign Ministry sent letters to the United Nations and its Security Council stating that Israel's aggression shows the links between Tel Aviv and terrorist groups operating in Syria including the al-Qaeda-linked al-Nusra Front.
Syrian Information Minister Omran al-Zoabi told reporters in Damascus last Sunday that Syria had the right and the duty to defend its people by all available means and it would not give in to Israeli acts of aggression.
The Israeli attacks on Syria have made the Middle-East more dangerous, the Syrian information minister said.
Also a senior Syrian military source told Russia Today on Monday that the Zionist entity used depleted uranium shells in the strike in Syria.
"When the explosion happened, it felt like an earthquake, then a giant golden mushroom of fire appeared. This tells us that Israel used depleted uranium shells," the source said.
The Sunday Israeli aggression was Tel Aviv's second strike on Syria in three days and the third in the last five months.
The Jamraya facility was also targeted in an Israeli airstrike in January.
