2nd Israeli airstrikes hit Syrian airbase

DAMASCUS, Syria - Israel launched a second round of strikes against Syria in 24 hours on Sunday, Syria state media reported.

Syria accused Israel of targeting an airbase in Homs province, reportedly killing five people, just hours after carrying out retaliatory attacks on military and intelligence posts south of Damascus, killing 10.

"Our air defenses thwarted an Israeli aggression and destroyed two of the rockets that targeted the T-4 air base," a military source told state news agency SANA on Sunday evening.
