Israeli missiles strike Syrian town south of Damascus | Al Jazeera

Israel has fired several surface-to-surface missiles targeting sites south of Syrian capital Damascus, Syrian state news agency SANA reported.

The shelling struck a town south of Damascus on Wednesday evening, causing material damage.

This is the second Israeli aerial strike on Syria this month, after it targeted anti-aircraft batteries on February 9 in response to what it said was a missile fired from Syria.

A Syrian soldier was killed and five wounded in the attack near Damascus earlier this month.
