An Israeli air attack has hit Syria’s Aleppo airport causing damages, the Syrian defence ministry disclosed.
The defence ministry said early Wednesday; "Marking the third attack on Aleppo International Airport in six months, Israel launched a number of missiles from the Mediterranean Sea, west of the coastal city of Latakia."
The report said that Israeli warplanes fired the missiles toward Aleppo, while flying over the Mediterranean.
Aleppo International Airport has been a major hotpost for attacks in recent times.
Earlier this month, Syrian state media said that an Israeli air raid on Aleppo airport had damaged a runway, which was taken out of service forcing the rerouting of relief supplies to Damascus and Latakia.
Israel has carried out hundreds of air attacks against Syria but rarely admits responsibility.
Israeli officials say the attacks are aimed at suspected Iranian-sponsored weapons dumps and personnel.
