Syria’s official SANA news agency quoted an unnamed military source as saying that the new missile attack was carried out early Tuesday from the direction of the occupied Golan Heights, and in addition to Damascus, hit some other areas in the southern part of the country.

The military source added that the country’s air defenses intercepted Israeli missiles, shooting down most of them.

The attack, however, left two civilians dead and caused some material damage.

This was the fourth missile strike carried out by the occupying regime against Syria in less than a week.

The new attack came after the Israeli regime conducted a missile strike against positions across the country’s central Homs province on Sunday, injuring five soldiers.
