Syrian air defenses shot down “most” of the missiles before they reached their targets, according to the Syrian Arab News Agency, which said the attack targeted Kiswa area, Marj Al-Sultan, Baghdad Bridge, and South Izra, all in and around Damascus. | |
While no party has taken responsibility for the incident, Syrian state media pinned the attack on Israel. Tel Aviv has repeatedly flown bombing raids against what it claims to be 'legitimate Iranian targets' in Syria in recent years, disregarding the country’s sovereignty and international laws prohibiting acts of aggression. | While no party has taken responsibility for the incident, Syrian state media pinned the attack on Israel.
