Air Strike in Syria Destroys Weapons Shipments for Hizbullah; Syrians Claim Rockets Intercepted

A statement by the Syrian military boasts of having “intercepted several Israeli missiles” but the degree of destruction to missiles and other weapons awaiting shipment from Damascus to Iranian proxy Hizbullah was not mentioned in the release regarding Saturday night’s air raid. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights which monitors military actions, confirmed the strikes on weapons warehouses near the Damascus airport where Lebanon-bound munitions were held pending transfer to the Hizbullah terrorist organization. Israel has made numerous attacks against weapons arriving from Iran, an Israeli official admitting last fall that in the past year-and-a-half, it had hit some 200 targets in Syria.
