SANA has previously reported that air defenses confronted Israeli aerial aggression in the southern region and downed a number of missiles.
A military source told SANA that “ at about 03:11 a.m. on Wednesday, the Israeli enemy launched an aerial aggression from the direction of the occupied Golan that targeted the southern region as the Syrian air defenses confronted it and downed a number of rockets.”
The source added that “three soldiers were martyred in the aggression, and a soldier was injured, in addition to causing material damages.”
Throughout the years of the terrorist war waged against Syria, the Israeli forces have launched many aerial acts of aggression, and the Syrian air defenses have confronted them and downed most of the missiles before reaching their targets, according to SANA.
