Following an Israel Defense Forces airstrike near the central Syrian city of Homs early this morning, a Syrian air defense missile exploded over central Israel.
The IDF Home Front acknowledged the explosion of the Syrian air defense missile explosion but did not comment on the Israel Air Force strike on Syria.
“A short while ago, an anti-aircraft rocket was launched from Syria into Israeli territory. The rocket appears to have exploded in the air,” according to a statement released early Sunday morning.
Some hours later, the IDF announced a retaliatory strike on the Syrian anti-aircraft battery responsible for launching the missile. In that announcement, it appeared to take responsibility for an earlier attack.
“IDF fighter jets struck an anti-aircraft battery in Syria in response to the launch of an anti-aircraft rocket from Syria into Israeli territory earlier tonight,” the statement said. “In addition, the fighter jets struck additional targets in the area.”
The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) released a statement early Sunday morning claiming that the Syrian Army air defense “repelled an Israeli act of aggression with missiles that targeted some sites in the vicinity of Homs city.”
