A strike carried out on a Syrian base near Hama on Sunday night hit a storage facility and destroyed 200 missiles, according to an official “from a regional alliance that includes Iran, Syria and Hezbollah,” quoted by the New York Times.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported that the attacked base belongs to the 47th Brigade and is controlled by Iranian and Assad regime forces in the southern countryside of Hama.
The target of the attack was depots of ground-to-ground missiles belonging to the Iranian militiamen, the report said.
SOHR documented the deaths of at least 26 members, including four Syrian soldiers; the rest are “of Arab and Asian nationalities,” the greatest portion of whom are Iranian. The number of casualties is expected to increase with more than 60 injured and missing people, some seriously wounded.
Media outlets affiliated with the Syrian opposition claim that 38 government soldiers were killed in the strike, with an additional 57 wounded.
Ha’aretz quoted a report from a Syrian newspaper that attributed the attack to the US and Britain. Russia’s RT Arabic said the strike was carried out by US and UK forces based in Jordan, which fired nine ballistic missiles at the Syrian positions.
Israel’s Channel 20 estimated that the destroyed Iranian missiles were to be used in an attack on the Jewish state, carried out in retaliation for an Israel Air Force attack on an Iranian drone at the T4 base in Syria earlier this month.

据“纽约时报”引述的一名官员“来自包括伊朗，叙利亚和真主党在内的地区联盟”说，星期天晚上在哈马附近的叙利亚基地进行的一次袭击袭击了一个储存设施并摧毁了200枚导弹。
叙利亚人权观察组织报告说，袭击的基地属于第47旅，由伊朗和阿萨德政权部队在哈马南部农村控制。
报告说，袭击目标是属于伊朗民兵的地对地导弹仓库。
SOHR记录了至少26名成员的死亡事件，其中包括四名叙利亚士兵;其余的是“阿拉伯和亚洲国家”，其中最大的部分是伊朗人。预计伤亡人数将增加，60多人受伤和失踪，一些人受重伤。
与叙利亚反对派有关联的媒体称，38名政府军士兵在罢工中遇难，另有57人受伤。
“国土报”援引了一份叙利亚报纸的报道，称这次袭击事件归因于美国和英国。俄罗斯RT阿拉伯语称，这次罢工是由设在约旦的美国和英国军队进行的，这些军队向叙利亚阵地发射了9枚弹道导弹。
以色列第20海峡部队估计，伊朗的这些被摧毁的导弹将用于袭击这个犹太国家，这是为了报复以色列空军本月早些时候在叙利亚T4基地对一架伊朗无人机的袭击。
