Israel launches missile attack near Syrian capital of Damascus

Damascus, November 3 (RHC)-- Israel has launched an aerial attack with a number of missiles targeting an area on the outskirts of the Syrian capital of Damascus, Syrian state TV said early on Wednesday, citing a military source.  It added the attack resulted in some material damage.

Last Saturday, Israel also fired missiles towards the suburbs of the Syrian capital, although they were intercepted by Syria’s air defences.  On October 14, an Israeli air raid on Iranian positions in central Syria also killed nine fighters allied to the Syrian government.

The attacks came days after Syria accused Israel of carrying out an attack in the country’s south.  Israel, alarmed by Iran’s growing regional influence and military presence in Syria, has launched hundreds of attacks in Syria over the years but rarely acknowledges or discusses such operations.   The attacks on Syria usually happen during the night.
