At least three Syrians killed in Zionist aggression
2022-05-22
[HODHODYEMENNEWS] At least three people were killed on Friday as a result of a Zionist attack south of Damascus, the Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) reported, citing a military source.

"At nearly 11 PM on Friday, the Israeli enemy carried out an aggression with surface-to-surface missiles from the direction of the occupied Syrian Golan, targeting some points south of Damascus. The Army air defences intercepted the missiles’ aggression and downed most of them," a military source said in a statement.

The source added that the aggression also caused material losses.

The latest Zionist aggression came a week after five people, including a civilian, were martyred in a missile attack targeting the town of Masyaf in the Hama countryside.

The Zionist entity regularly carries out attacks on Syria, acting with near total impunity due to being protected by Western powers.
An Nahar adds:
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights war monitor said that the three people killed were officers and that four other members of the air defense crew were maimed.

The Israeli strikes targeted Iranian positions and weapon depots near Damascus, the monitor said.

A fire broke at one of the positions near the Damascus airport, where ambulances were seen rushing to the site of the strikes, according to the Observatory.

#1  I don’t doubt the reports, but it’s interesting that neither the Times of Israel nor the Jerusalem Post bothered to carry the story, though they had the previous attack.
