AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Israeli warplanes have carried out airstrikes on the Syrian provinces of Aleppo and Idlib.
Syria’s official news agency SANA said the Israeli military launched the attacks in the early hours of Saturday, targeting several sites in the countryside of Aleppo and Idlib.
Syrian air defense forces intercepted missiles launched by Israel "from the direction of the Israeli-occupied Syrian Golan Heights and the Lebanese territories" and shot down some of them, SANA added.
The report said the air raids resulted in the injury of a number of soldiers and some material losses.
SANA also reported explosions in the vicinity of Syria's capital Damascus.
Since the beginning of foreign-backed militancy in Syria in 2011, Israel has carried out hundreds of strikes on the Arab country.
The Israeli military has intensified its airstrikes on Syria since the Tel Aviv regime launched its war on Lebanon.
The Tel Aviv regime rarely comments on its attacks on Syrian territories, which many see as a knee-jerk reaction to the Syrian government’s phenomenal success in confronting and decimating terrorism.
Damascus has time and again called on the UN Security Council to put an end to the regime’s attacks that violate Syria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
The Israeli attacks on Syria come amid the regime’s ongoing genocide in the Gaza Strip which has killed more than 43,500 people, 70 percent women and children, over the past year.
