Press TV – Oct 30, 2021
The Syrian military says the country’s air defenses have in a rare daytime strike intercepted missiles fired from the direction of the Israeli-occupied territories at Damascus countryside.
Citing a military source, Syria’s official news agency SANA said Saturday that the Israeli regime launched missiles from the northern side of occupied Palestine and targeted some points in Damascus countryside around 11 a.m. local time.
The source said that the country’s air defense systems were activated against “hostile targets from the direction of occupied lands,” and a number of the missiles were “repelled.”
The source also said the aggression injured two soldiers and caused some material damages.
Syrian state television had earlier reported of explosions heard in the countryside surrounding the capital.
The latest attack came just a few days after the Syrian media said Israeli helicopters had hit three targets on the outskirts of the town of al-Baath as well as other locations in southern Syria.
Very rare the Israeli army carries out airstrikes in Syria by daylight; Damascus area, after a lack of IAF activity recently. Reports indicate the main target is weapons delivery to Lebanon. The possible killing of 🇸🇾 soldiers is going against the deal between Israel and Moscow. pic.twitter.com/PK6jSU9EjM

Two of the sites targeted on Monday were observation posts reportedly used by the Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah, while the third target was a site next to a Syrian military facility. The strikes caused “material damage,” but there was no immediate word on casualties.
Israel frequently targets military positions inside Syria, especially those for Hezbollah, which has played a key role in helping the Syrian army in its fight against the foreign-backed terrorists.
The Tel Aviv regime mostly keeps quiet about its attacks on Syrian territories, which many view as knee-jerk reaction to the Syrian government’s increasing success in confronting terrorism.
Israel has been a main supporter of terrorist groups that have opposed the government of President Bashar al-Assad since foreign-backed militancy erupted in Syria nine years ago.
Looks to me like Putin gave Syria those S400s afterall LOL. Suck it up isra-hell.
Now if only Syria would become adept at launching real missiles (not those Palestinian bottle-rockets) and bombs back at Israel and turn Tel Aviv into a smoldering crater….. Has there ever been a more vile, repulsive, demonic regime on earth than Israel? Oh, wait, every nation the Jews gain control of turns wildly wicked and psychopathically destructive…
I read a recent headline, though I didn’t read the article, which said Iran itself upgraded the S-300 missile system, so maybe they passed that on to Syria? I don’t doubt the Syrians are also capable, but I think under those dreadful war conditions it finds itself I doubt they could do much military research without their facilities being bombed by the war criminal US and Israeli f***-pigs.
