Syrian media report Israeli airstrikes against Damascus International Airport and other targets near the capital.
The pro-government Sham FM radio says the runway at the airport was hit, among other targets.
There is no immediate information on casualties in the strikes.
Damascus airport has been allegedly struck by Israel several times over the past year, as Israel is believed to be stepping up efforts to prevent the shipment of advanced weapons from Iran to its various Middle East proxies, chief among them Hezbollah in Lebanon.
