Syria says Israeli missile strike near Damascus airport confirmed

Several Israeli missiles hit a Syrian military position southwest of Damascus airport at dawn on Thursday, Syrian state media said.

The “Israeli aggression” resulted in explosions at the site and some material losses, it said, citing a military source.

 

Meanwhile, a senior Syrian official threatened that his country would respond to the alleged Israeli strike on a Hezbollah-operated weapons hub near the Damascus airport.

“The Syrian army and its allies will work to thwart the new Israeli plot on the occupied Golan border and will continue to destroy the enemy’s collaborators,” the Syrian military source speaking on condition of anonymity told Lebanese news site el-Nashra.
