Israel raid wounds three in central Syria: state media
DAMASCUS, April 13, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – An Israeli air strike in central Syria
wounded three combatants early Saturday, the official SANA news agency
reported.
“Around 2:30 am (2330 GMT Friday)… the Israeli air force carried out a
strike targeting one of our military positions in the town of Misyaf,” in
Hama province north of Damascus, SANA quoted a military source as saying.
“Our air defence batteries intercepted some of the Israeli missiles,” the
source said, adding that the strike “wounded three combatants and destroyed
buildings.”
Israel has carried out hundreds of air strikes in Syria, most of them
against what it says are Iranian and Hezbollah targets.
