More on this story from yesterday. Possibly the two deaders were Hezbollah rather than Syrian soldiers.
[HODHODYEMENNEWS] The Syrian army air defenses have repelled Israeli missile aggression that targeted some sites in Damascus vicinity, and downed a number of the hostile missiles, state-run SANA news agency reported, citing a military source.

According to the military source, “At about 12:30 a.m., the Israeli enemy launched an aerial act of aggression with waves of missiles from the northeastern direction of Lake Tiberias, targeting some sites in the vicinity of Damascus City, and our air defenses intercepted the hostile missiles and downed a number of them.”

The source added that “two army personnel were injured in the aggression, which also caused some material damages.

Rockets fell near the airport of the capital of the country. Two people were injured, both soldiers.

Video of the explosions after the shelling was published on social networks. Four districts of the city were attacked, several missiles shot down anti-aircraft defense (AD) systems.

As REGNUM reported, on December 15, the Turkish army targeted the positions and transport of Kurdish self-defense units in the northeast of Syrian territory. The Kurds did not take retaliatory actions, the situation in the north-east of the republic remained generally stable.
