Eight Syrian soldiers were wounded and “material losses” were caused in an alleged Israeli airstrike on Damascus this evening, Syria’s state-run SANA broadcaster reports, citing a military source.
SANA says Israeli warplanes launched their missiles from over the Golan Heights at a site in the area of the capital.
Earlier, a security source told Reuters that the strike hit a building operated by Syrian security forces on the outskirts of Damascus.
