Israel Bombs Damascus International Airport in Syria
----------------------------------------------------

Syria has suspended all flights at the Damascus International Airport
after an Israeli attack damaged the airport's runway and observation
tower. Israel reportedly launched a volley of missiles from the occupied
Golan Heights early Friday morning. Syria, Iran and Russia condemned the
attack. In recent years Israel has quietly carried out hundreds of
strikes inside Syria targeting Syrian forces, as well as Iranian-backed
fighters.
