TEHRAN (IQNA) – Syrian Army air defense units have repelled an Israeli aggression against areas near Damascus on Saturday.

 

According to the Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA), sounds of several explosions were heard near the Syrian capital of Damascus.

According to the report, the air defense units of Syria have intercepted and downed a number of missile that were fired from occupied Palestinian territories.

The missiles were launched at Aldimas area in western Damascus at 11:17 AM local time, according to the report.  

The attack has left two Syrian soldiers injured, also causing some material damage, according to the Syrian Defense Ministry.

Israel frequently targets military positions inside Syria, especially those of the resistance movement Hezbollah which has played a key role in helping the Syrian army in its fight against the foreign-backed terrorists.

The Tel Aviv regime mostly keeps quiet about its attacks on Syrian territories which many view as knee-jerk reaction to Syrian government’s increasing success in confronting terrorism.

Israel has been a main supporter of terrorist groups that have opposed the government of President Bashar al-Assad since foreign-backed militancy erupted in Syria nine years ago.
