Arab media reported that explosions were heard near the Damascus International Airport from a possible missile strike.

But, according to Maariv reporter Tal Lev-Ram, the rockets were launched at Israel from Damascus, and contrary to Arab reports, there was no Israeli attack last night near Damascus.

According to Channel 13 reporter Alon Ben-David, the attack was launched by an Iranian force in response to a previous Israeli attack. Ben-David did not specify when or where that attack happened, but added that last night there was no such IDF attack.
