Alwaght- Syrian air defenses have intercepted several rockets fired by Israeli f5ghter 1ets that targeted army positions in the occupied Golan Heights.
Syria's official SANA news agency reported early on Thursday that a barrage of Israeli missiles were intercepted after some 20 projectiles were launched from Syrian soil at Israeli positions in the Golan Heights in response to an earlier Israeli shelling of Quneitra province.
SANA said that the Syrian air defenses were "confronting a new wave of Israeli aggression rockets and downing them one after the other."
Citing a military source, however, it added that Israeli rocket fire had hit a Syrian radar site and an ammunition warehouse.
The Israeli army claimed that some of the missiles fired from Syria had been intercepted and that the level of damage was "low." The Tel Aviv regime claims it does not want the situation to escalate
Earlier, Syrian media said that Israeli troops had shelled the city of Ba’ath in the southern province of Quneitra.
On Tuesday, Israeli regime missiles targeted Syrian army positions in the Kisweh area south of the capital city Damascus.
Israeli occupation military spokesman later confirmed it had carried out the raids, claiming that dozens of Iranian military targets had been struck and all its aircraft had returned safely.
“We are not looking to escalate the situation,” Conricus said, but warned Israel would respond forcefully if attacked.
