Syria's air defenses have responded to "rockets fired by Israeli aircraft into the vicinity of Damascus," state media reported.

"The air defenses" dropped most of the hostile missiles, the official news agency SANA quoted a military source as saying.

The source told SANA that "Israeli warplanes coming from the direction of the Galilee finger fired several missiles at the vicinity of Damascus."

He added: "The results of the aggression so far limited the injury of one of the warehouses at the Damascus International Airport."
