Alwaght- Syrian anti-missile systems have intercepted a majority of the missiles launched by the Israeli military near the capital Damascus on Sunday, reported Syrian media.
According to local Syrian media reports, early on Sunday, Israeli military aircraft “carried out an aerial attack from the direction of the occupied Golan Heights, and targeted several sites in the Damascus countryside.”
Most of the missiles were shot down, according to media outlets. Israeli regime often conducts airstrikes on military installations in Syria, with the focus it claims being the installations of Lebanon’s Hezbollah.
Hezbollah has been instrumental in supporting the Syrian army in its battle against terrorists backed by foreign entities.
The Tel Aviv regime infrequently acknowledges its military actions within Syrian territories, which is widely interpreted as a knee-jerk reaction to the Syrian government’s triumph over terrorism.
Since the onset of foreign-backed militancy in Syria in 2011, Israel has stood as a staunch supporter of terrorist factions that are in opposition to the democratically-elected leadership of President Bashar al-Assad.
The Israeli regime claims that its airstrikes are meant to prevent military entrenchment of Hezbollah and also Iran in Syria.
Iran has military advisors in Syria to advise and train allied Syrian forces against terrorist groups.
During the years of Syrian civil war, the Israeli attacks were launched when Syrian forces made advances against the foreign-backed terrorist groups.
