Damascus: Three killed in Israel raid on Syria

Syrian government sources say at least three people were killed at Damascus International Airport on Friday in a missile attack from Israel.

Syrian air defenses intercepted multiple “hostile targets” in the skies over Damascus late on Friday, but some missiles got through to cause casualties and start a fire at the airport, according to the Syrian Defense Ministry.

Explosions could also be heard along the coast and in the city of Tartus, which hosts a Russian naval base in Syria.

Israeli government has not officially commented on the reports so far.
