Army's Air Defenses Intercept Israeli Enemy's Warplanes Trying to Violate Syrian Airspace

The Syrian air defenses today morning intercepted Israeli enemy's warplanes that violated the Syrian airspace near the Lebanese borders, the General Command of the Army and Armed Forces announced on Monday.


In a statement, the command said "Israeli enemy's warplanes at  8:51 a.m violated the Syrian airspace at the Lebanese borders in Baalbak, but the Syrian army air defenses  intercepted them hitting one of the warplanes directly and forcing the rest to flee."

 The command added that "at 11:38 a.m the Israeli enemy fired several rockets from inside the occupied territories against a Syrian military position in Damascus Countryside, causing material damage."

The command warned of the dangerous repercussions of the Israeli repeated acts of aggression, stressing its determination to continue its war on terrorist organizations which form Israel's arm in the region.

The Israeli enemy has close connection to terrorist organizations in Syria. The Syrian army units found Israeli-made weapons inside ISIS dens several times, the latest of which was today when they seized an Israeli cannon left by ISIS terrorists in Jub al-Jarrah area in Homs countryside before they were driven out.
