Syrian Air Defences Intercept Israeli Missiles

DAMASCUS, Sept 3 (NNN-SANA) – The Syrian air defences, last night, intercepted a fresh Israeli missile attack in central Syria.

The Israeli warplanes fired missiles from the direction of the al-Tanf area, in southeastern Syria, targeting the T4 air base in the central province of Homs, a military source said.

The air defences intercepted most of the missiles and the rest caused only minor damage.

The attack is the latest in a series of Israeli missile strikes, against Syrian military sites.

On Monday, a total of 11 people, mostly military personnel, were killed, in overnight Israeli missile strikes on the capital, Damascus and Daraa province in southern Syria, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

Throughout the Syrian crisis, Israel has carried out hundreds of airstrikes against Iranian targets in Syria, as well as, convoys transporting weapons to the Shiite militant group Hezbollah, a Lebanese militia, allegedly backed by Iran.– NNN-SANA
