The Syrian army's air defense confronted an Israeli rocket attack on the Syrian capital Damascus on Tuesday morning.

Iran PressMiddle East: The Zionist regime always targets the positions of the Syrian army, and infrastructure in order to support the terrorists.

Syria's official SANA news agency reported Tuesday morning that the Syrian army's air defenses had intercepted and destroyed several missiles over the southern suburbs of Damascus.

Israeli fighter jets frequently launch missile strikes on targets in Syria, using Lebanese airspace or through the occupied Golan Heights.

The UN peacekeeping force based in Lebanon has repeatedly reported that the Zionist regime violates UN resolutions on a daily basis and violates Lebanese airspace too.

The Syrian Foreign Ministry recently issued a statement condemning the Zionist regime's attacks on Syria, saying that Damascus will use all legitimate means to respond to the Zionist regime's aggression. 219
