Syria Says Its Air Defences Confront Israeli Missile Strike on Central Parts of Country
Syrian air defences on Sunday intercepted what it said was an Israeli missile strike across central parts of the country and downed most of the missiles, state media said.
An army statement said missiles that flew over parts of Lebanon's capital Beirut hit locations in the vicinity of the city of Homs, resulting only in material damage.
Reuters could not immediately confirm the report.
Israeli military officials were not immediately available for comment, but an Israeli military spokesperson said earlier on Twitter that an anti-aircraft missile launched from inside Syrian territory towards Israel exploded in mid-air.
