The Israeli Air Force was attempting to target an Iranian cargo plane that was unloading at Damascus International Airport, according to reports. However, other reports cite the target of the missiles as a military installation not far from the airport. Two missiles were apparently used.
There were explosions in Damascus and air defenses are engaging targets. It isn't clear if any missiles were intercepted, however.
In the aftermath of the strike a powerful blast was reported in the north of the Al Quneitra province, which is to the southwest of Damascus, closer to Israel. Some reports say the explosion came from the interception of an Israeli drone by Syria's air defense system, Al Masdar News reports.
The Israeli Air Force hit multiple targets in Syria last month in what it said was a 'retaliatory' measure amid an alleged Iranian military buildup in the Arab Republic.
