Syrian Air Defenses Intercept Israeli Enemy Missiles Targeting Damascus Suburb

The Syrian military says the country’s air defenses have intercepted Israeli missiles coming from the direction of the occupied Golan Heights.

Syria’s official news agency SANA quoted a military source as saying that the Israeli missiles were fired hours before midnight on Sunday at targets in the vicinity of the Syrian capital Damascus.

The source said almost all of the missiles were successfully intercepted by the Syrian air defenses.

Israeli media claim the airstrike was a response to a recent attack on an Israeli-owned vessel in the Gulf of Oman, which Tel Aviv blames on Iran.
