Syrian forces shoot down Israeli missile outside Damascus - Syrian media

Syrian air defenses shot down an Israeli missile on Wednesday that targeted points in the Damascus countryside, Syrian media reported.

“At approximately 3:15 p.m. this afternoon, the Zionist enemy carried out an air strike with two missiles from the direction of the occupied Golan Heights, targeting some points in the vicinity of the city of Damascus,” a Syrian military source told the Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA).

The military source added that their air defense forces "responded to the aggression, shot down one of the missiles, and the losses were limited to material losses."

Israel has allegedly targeted Iranian-proxy groups based in Syria, but the IDF rarely acknowledges strikes or other attacks in the Arab republic.

This is a developing story.
