This article is almost entirely redundant of existing coverage at Israeli invasion of Syria (2024–present) and Iran–Israel conflict during the Syrian civil war, both of which already include the relevant developments in detail and context. This page duplicates material more appropriately contextualized on those more complete articles. Also, this article falsely conflates 1) spillover of the Gaza war and 2) the long-running Iran-Israel proxy war in Syria. Merging them into a single narrative is misleading and undermines clarity. Given the content overlap and lack of coherent scope, the material would be better integrated into the existing, more comprehensive articles rather than maintained as a standalone page per WP:NOPAGE.

- Delete pretty much per nom. This article is merely a redundant WP:CFORK of the Israeli invasion of Syria (2024–present) article. Despite the page title making it seem like it's somewhat about Gaza there is actually very little mention of it throughout the article. In fact, the word "Gaza" is only mentioned in the lede, "Background" section, and nowhere else in the article. Chorchapu (talk | edits) 17:47, 21 April 2026 (UTC)
