Damascus, May 24 (AFP) May 24, 2018
Missiles targeted a Syrian military airbase in the central province of Homs on Thursday, the official state news agency SANA said.

"One of our military airports was the target of missiles intercepted by our anti-aircraft defences," SANA said, citing a military source.

SANA reported explosions in the area, but said air defences prevented the missiles from achieving their "objective".
