Syria Air Force Repels Israeli Missile Attacks over Quneitra, Homs

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Syrian air defense units intercepted and shot down several Israeli missiles over the country’s provinces of Quneitra and Homs.

"At 00:30 on Thursday our air defense monitored Israeli warplanes coming from northern occupied Palestine towards Sidon, and several missiles were fired from Lebanese airspace towards the central area," SANA news agency reported.

The source added that the missiles were intercepted successfully, and failed to hit any of their targets.

Israel has carried out hundreds of airstrikes in Syria, including in the Golan Heights, most of them against what the Tel Aviv regime claims to be the positions of pro-Syrian forces.

The Syrian military has mostly absorbed the Israeli strikes, locking its defense systems on incoming fire.

In early 2018, Syria targeted and shot down at least one Israeli F-16 that had intruded into its airspace.

Syria has called on the United Nations to adopt necessary measures to stop Israel’s repeated acts of military aggression on the Arab country.
