Breaking News: Israeli war planes bomb 'suspected' chemical weapons site in Syria

In the on going unrest and guerrilla war in Syria, Israel also jumps in with its war planes bombing 'suspected' chemical weapons site in Syria.

The strike occurred overnight Thursday into Friday, the officials told The Associated Press. It did not appear that a chemical weapons site was targeted, they said, and one official said the strike appeared to have hit a warehouse.

The attack with its uncertainty about the target is the repetition of the American poundings in Iraq before the Iraqi invasion on suspected Atomic site which later turned out to be a biscuit factory.

However, Israeli Embassy spokesman Aaron Sagui would not comment Friday night specifically on the report of an Israeli strike into Syria.
