Beirut/Tel Aviv
Two civilians were killed in Israeli missile attacks on southern parts of the Syrian capital Damascus, state media reported on Monday. “At around 5 o’clock this morning, the Israeli enemy carried out an air aggression from the direction south of Beirut, targeting some points in the vicinity of the city of Damascus,” the Syrian News Agency (SANA) reported, citing a military source said.
It said Syrian air defences confronted “the aggressor’s missiles and shot down most of them.” It added that the attack resulted in the killing of two civilians and caused some material losses.
The sound of roaring Israeli jets was heard across eastern and southern Lebanon.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which monitors violence in Syria, said the attack targeted an arms depot for Iranian-backed militias near Damascus’ international airport.
