He also stressed that aggression only resulted in material damages, noting that this Israeli aggression is the second this month and the first after the Arab summit in Jeddah took place on May 19, which witnessed Syria's participation in a first since 11 years, after the country's return to the Arab League.
On Sunday, a Syrian military confirmed in a statement to Syrian state-run news agency SANA that "at around 23:45 p.m. on Sunday, the Israeli enemy carried out an aerial act of aggression with missiles from the direction of the occupied Syrian Golan, targeting some sites in the vicinity of Damascus."
The source indicated that Syrian army air defenses "intercepted the missiles and downed some of them."
In early May, the Syrian air defenses intercepted Israeli aggression targeting the vicinity of Aleppo International Airport and the town of As-Safirah in the southern countryside of Aleppo.
Al Mayadeen correspondent stated that the damage resulting from the Israeli airstrikes put the airport out of service.
