On Friday, the Syrian air defenses intercepted an Israeli aggression that targeted the south of the Syrian capital, Damascus.
It came less than 24 hours after Israeli airstrikes that targeted the vicinity of Damascus left two Syrian army personnel injured and caused material damage. Following the aggression, the Syrian Foreign Ministry stated that "the Israeli terrorist aggression that targeted some points in the vicinity of Damascus city this morning is nothing but a continuation of the fascist method of the Israeli entity towards the peoples and countries of the region."
"This hostile act is an attempt by the entity to escape from its internal disintegration," the ministry tweeted.
It added that "the region cannot enjoy peace or stability unless an end is put to the Israeli occupation and its repeated attacks."
