Iran Press/Middle East: On Wednesday morning, news sources reported that the air defense of the Syrian Army had confronted hostile targets around Damascus.
In this statement, it is emphasized: "Syria strongly condemns the aggression of the Israeli regime to places near the city of Damascus."
Syria called on the UN Secretary General and the Security Council to immediately condemn Israel and hold it accountable for its crimes.
A SANA source stated that Syrian air defenses intercepted the missiles and shot down most of them. However, some missiles got through, resulting in injuries to two soldiers and causing property damage.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights counted this incident as the 20th Israeli raid this year. Israel has repeatedly attacked Syria's military positions since 2011, amidst the country's struggle against foreign-backed violence.
Damascus has consistently complained to the United Nations about Israeli assaults, urging the Security Council to take action against Israel's actions. However, these demands have gone unanswered. 219
