Israel carries out new air strikes against Syria

Syrian air defense systems have been put into operation to counter Israeli air force's numerous missile attacks.

According to the official Syrian regime news agency Sana, air defense systems have taken action to counter Israeli attacks.

Sana announced that some missiles were neutralised before they reached their targets, while did not inform about the targets of the attack that was carried out early in the morning. According to Sana, the attack was over the neighboring Lebanese airspace.

Israel has carried out numerous attacks allegedly against Iran and Hezbollah, which have sided with Damascus since 2011, when the civil war began in Syria.

On April 20, according to regime sources, some targets in the Palmira desert were bombed by Israel.

The Syrian Human Rights Observatory reported that the posts of the Iranian militia were targeted in the attack, 3 Syrian fighters and 6 foreign fighters were killed.

On March 31, again, according to Sana news agency, the Syrian air force fired missiles at the center of the country.

The Israeli state, which rarely claims responsibility for the attacks, normally says that it will not allow Iran to be effective in Syria.
