2 Israeli missiles intercepted by Syrian Air defence at Damascus

Syria Dec 02: Two missiles were fired by allegedly by Israel on Syria on Saturday.

Syrian Air defence intercepted the two Israeli missiles at a government military position in Damascus province but the attack still caused damage which was reported by the state media.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based monitor of the war, said the missiles, presumably Israeli, targeted "positions of the Syrian regime and its allies" southwest of Damascus.

"At half past midnight (2230 GMT Friday), the Israeli enemy fired several surface-to-surface missiles at a military position in Damascus province,” the state SANA news agency reported.

"The air defences of the Syrian army were able to deal with the attack... destroying two of the missiles," it said, adding that the attack nonetheless caused "material damage".
