Israel has attacked targets in Damascus, the Syrian Ministry of Defense said in a statement. According to the statement, no one should have been injured.
Just before midnight, explosions were heard in the vicinity of the capital, but the air defenses are said to have knocked out several incoming projectiles.
Since the civil war broke out in Syria, Israel has regularly attacked targets in Syria, usually without commenting on them. In the latest airstrike, in early May, seven people were killed.
