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

Israel has bombed the Damascus International Airport in Syria again.
According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, the bombing killed
five Syrian soldiers and two members of Iran-backed groups. The United
Nations recently revealed that an Israeli strike on the Damascus
International Airport in June prevented the U.N. from flying
humanitarian aid into Syria for two weeks. In recent years Israel has
carried out hundreds of attacks inside Syria, including multiple attacks
targeting airports.
