"Four Israeli F-16 tactical fighter planes fired eight Delilah guided missiles at Syrian air defense stations 20 kilometers west and 12 kilometers northwest of Damascus on October 30 from 12.25 to 12.28, without entering Syrian airspace, from their territory near the Golan Heights. The Syrian air defense forces on duty used the Buk-M2E surface-to-air missile system to destroy two missiles." According to TASS, the Russian Defense Ministry quoted Vadim Kulit, deputy chief of the Russian Center Reconciliation of the Opposing Parties in Syria, in a statement.

"The strike resulted in minor damage to infrastructure, and two servicemen of the Syrian Armed Forces were wounded." Kulit stated.

According to Vadim Kulit, the Syrian air defense forces' Pantsir missile systems destroyed 8 out of 12 Israeli missiles launched at the T-4 airfield in the Homs region on Friday.

The Israeli dictatorship frequently violates Lebanese airspace to launch assaults against Syria.
