Some of the missiles Israel launched into Syrian territory have broken through the defenses deployed by Damascus and hit radar and air defense positions, state media outlet SANA said, citing a military source.

The missile barrage, reportedly launched by Israeli warplanes from outside Syrian territory, took place late Wednesday evening into early Thursday morning and targeted areas in the Quneitra and Homs areas near Damascus. Syrian air defense systems responded and shot down "tens" of incoming missiles, according to SANA.

"Some of them managed to target a number of air defense (positions), radar and an ammunition depot," the source cited by SANA said.

Videos posted online by locals appear to show flashes from air defense missiles visible from the capital.

The Israeli army said it was attacking "Iranian targets" inside Syria. It earlier said its positions in the occupied part of the Golan Heights were targeted by some 20 missiles launched by "Iranian forces" from the Syrian-controlled part. At about the same time, Syrian media reported Israeli shells hitting the country's territory. Neither of those attacks resulted in any casualties, according to official sources.

Israel has been claiming that Iran is setting up bases of operations in Syria in order to stage attacks against the Jewish state. It has launched numerous air strikes against Syrian government-controlled territories, targeting alleged Iranian positions.

isreal,a never tiring country of war

Let the war begin....

People should understand that Israel is surrounded by enemies..... They must be pro active, they must keep bombing, they must be vigilant, the must destroy Iran hideouts in Syria.

Iran is Israels number 1 enemy in case you don't know, not Syria or the Palestinians.

Syria have allowed their soil to be used by Iran and other terrorist organizations to attack Israel.

if Israel must guaranty the safety of their citizens against the Muslim world.

Israel must triple their attacks and increase the bombings in Syria.

Until Syria decides to keep Iran terrorists out of their soil.

You warmongers will support Israel even if they kill your parents, Israel has been attacking Syria since 2011 without being provoked using potential threats as excuse for the attacks. They have broken numerous international law and you people still shout "Israel has a right to defend itself" of course they do but not in another country’s territory, whatever happens in Syria is not Israel's business.

How many times has Syria attacked Israel in the past 40 years, how many times has Israel attacked Syria in the past 7 years to start with, when you answer the question, you will know that this isn't a case of war, it's a case of aggression.

Thank you for this question. By any international norms, law or standard, even U.N charter. Golan Heights belongs to Syria and Syria/Iran (Also invited by Syrians to help pourge terrorist from its territory) has the right to shoot anything in Golan Heights and could claim they are all terrorist targets.

A lot of people seem to forget this fact. Everyday is for the thief but one day is for the owner. That day is near and Israeli days of stealing and killing are numbered.

You sir, are the unwise fellow, do you know more than the United nations and all the countries of the world that agreed that the Golan Heights belong to Syria? It was illegally taken by force from Syria by Israel and international law will never recognize it as Israeli territory so Syria did nothing wrong launching missiles into their own territory.

it was n't illegally taken the stay is illegal, UN and europe it will not accept it becos "their is no right to conquest" under their laws but israel will n't give it up becos it will be very useful against israel, and its israel 2 decide that but its suicide 2 give it up becos arabs doesn't recognise israel as a state.

Both the taking and the stay are illegal, it was first taken in an act of aggression by Israel on Syria.
Between 1967 and the beginning of the Syrian Civil War , the western two-thirds of the Golan Heights had become occupied and administered by Israel.
This move was condemned by the United Nations Security Council in UN Resolution 497, [2][12] which stated that "the Israeli decision to impose its laws, jurisdiction and administration in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights is null and void and without international legal effect.
