Damascus (AFP) - The Syrian army on Tuesday night intercepted two Israeli missiles fired towards a district near Damascus, Syria's official SANA news agency said, but a monitor said nine pro-government fighters died in the strike.
According to SANA, "anti-aircraft defenses intercepted two Israeli missiles launched against (the district of) Kissweh and destroyed them".
The agency had earlier reported "explosions" in the southern suburb, while state television broadcast images of fires in the area targeted by the strikes.
Rami Abdel Rahman, director of the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, told AFP that the missiles had targeted a weapons depot in Kissweh, "presumably belonging to Hezbollah and the Iranians".
Abdel Rahman said the strike had killed at least nine pro-government fighters, "including members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and other pro-Iranian Shiite militiamen", but it was not possible to independently confirm any toll.
Sanaa quoted a medical source saying that two civilians had died on a highway linking Damascus with the southern city of Deraa as a result of an explosion linked to "the Israeli aggression", without providing details.

You're kidding, right?
Are you kidding? I’m not. Describe for me the events , time , places and body counts of Syria’s attacks on Israel. Be specific. I don’t want conclusions. I want facts!! Dates etc. ( btw there are none)
“Isarel”?
+No yo don’t. You want to ignore all facts and cling to your r ignorant Obamabot propaganda.
You are an idiot, studying to be a moron, and failing.
Assad’s people don’t have any credibility with Americans.
A nation that repeatedly attacks another nation for generations has no sovereignty. Invasion, occupation and denazification are justified and needed in the countries of several criminal regimes now. See the follow-through on victory against Nazis. It’s proven and entirely possible to correct the characteristics of an errant culture.
Denazification, cumulative review. Report, 1 April 1947-30 April 1948.

Now you're being cynical. These Syrian reports have just as much credibility as what the Japanese Empire was telling their people in the summer of 1945.
I heard that Israel put out bomb shelter alerts because of “suspicious activities” by Iran in Syria.....would you have them wait until missiles are raining down before going after missile caches?
Yes. Israel attacked Syria now for a second time and then told their people to take cover. It is a great example of cause and affect.
