Missile defense systems have been activated against targets over Damascus, according to Syrian state agency. It added that incoming missiles came from Lebanese airspace, which reportedly was earlier violated by Israeli aircraft.
The raid came in several waves and reportedly lasted for at least an hour-and-a-half, yet damage from it was somewhat limited, as the majority of missiles were intercepted before they reached their targets. According to a military source cited, an ammunition depot was damaged in the attack and three servicemen sustained injuries.
An Israel warplane was spotted flying at low altitude over Lebanon, according to the Lebanese National News Agency. Israeli is known to illegally use the airspace of the country, whose border is much nearer to Damascus than its own, to avoid detection and interception.
Shortly after news broke of the strike on Damascus, IDF tweeted that Israel’s air defenses intercepted a Syria anti-aircraft missile. There were no casualties of damage, it stated.
