Israeli Jets Hit Iranian Warehouse in Damascus; Strike Iranian Storage Sites Helping Syrian Govt.

Missiles fired by Israeli warplanes struck a warehouse at Damascus International Airport late yesterday, Syrian state media reported today (January 12, 2019), citing a military official, according to the Jewish Press website.

The official said Israeli aircraft coming from south fired several missiles at areas near Damascus around 11:15 p.m.

Syrian TV said the attack was "broader than usual," and targeted areas stretching from the eastern Damascus suburb of Dmeir to Kiswa, south of the capital, and all the way to the western village of Dimas near the Lebanese border.

The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights explained that Kiswa is "home to positions and storage sites for Iranian and Hezbollah forces allied with Syria's government."
