The Syrian TV reported, on Friday, that the Syrian air defenses intercepted hostile missiles in the sky of Damascus countryside during an Israeli aggression, which resulted in the death of three Syrian soldiers and the wounding of at least 7 others.

Israeli media reported that missiles had been intercepted over Damascus.

Earlier this month, the Syrian news agency SANA confirmed that "the Israeli enemy carried out an air aggression with several missiles that targeted a number of poultry farms in the vicinity of the town of Hamidiyah, south of Tartus."

On June 10, the Syrian air defenses intercepted enemy missiles targeting southern Damascus during another Israeli aggression on the country.
