TEHRAN, May 25 (MNA) – A Syrian military source announced on Thursday night that the Syrian air defenses intercepted a missile attack on an airport near the western city of Homs.

The source told Syrian state news agency SANA on Thursday night that the air defenses confronted a hostile rocket strike on one of the military airbases in the central region and prevented it from achieving its aim.

According to SANA, the new aggression comes in coincidence with the successive continued defeats of terrorist organizations in front of the Syrian Arab army which fulfilled the purification of Damascus surroundings and forced the terrorists to hand over their weapons and get out of Homs and Hama countryside.
