The Syrian Air Defense Force has responded to a "missile attack" on a military airport in the area of Homs, state media SANA is reporting.

At least eight missiles were launched at Syria’s T-4 air base in the east of Homs province, SANA reports, citing a military source. According to the agency, the attack has “likely” been carried out by the United States. Meawnhile, Lebanon’s Al Mayadeen broadcaster has reported that the missiles were coming from the Mediterranean Sea, through Lebanese airspace.

 

The US Defense Department is "aware" of reports of an alleged missile strike, but did not confirm them, a Pentagon

representative told Sputnik.

 

Meanwhile, Al Masdar News is reporting that “unknown jets” have entered Syrian airspace from Lebanon, and is speculating that the jets could be Israeli. In response, the Syrian Air Defense system at Mezzeh Air Base was activated, the report added.
