Syrian
air defense systems have been activated in response to a missile
attack apparently targeting Shayrat Airbase in Homs province, state
media SANA reports.
Up
to 10 missiles were destroyed by the Syrian Armed Forces, a military
source told Sputnik. The Syrian air defenses managed to intercept
some of the projectiles, according to a SANA reporter.
Meanwhile, the Al Mayadeen news outlet is claiming that all the
projectiles were intercepted and inflicted no physical damage or
casualties at the targeted Syrian base.
The
Pentagon has denied initiating strikes or conducting any other
military activity in Homs province. “There
is no US military activity in that area at this time,” the
Pentagon’s spokesperson told Reuters. The same information was also
shared with TASS news agency by Pentagon spokesman Eric Pahon.
According
to yet unconfirmed reports, the missiles entered Syrian airspace from
Lebanon, which may indicate that the Israeli Air Force could have
been involved, Al-Masdar News reports, citing a military source. The
outlet’s reporter also published several videos allegedly showing
the launch of interceptor missiles.
