Syrian air defense forces have repelled an attack launched from "the ‘Israeli’-occupied territories", according to Syrian state media.

Syria's SANA news agency reported that the attack took place late on Sunday, with reports indicating that one of the four "hostile targets" was downed in the Aqrabah suburb near the capital Damascus.

SANA did not further elaborate on the possible targets and casualties of the attack.

Reuters, citing a source affiliated with pro-Damascus forces, said that four cruise missiles were believed to have been shot from the Lebanese airspace towards Syria.

Meanwhile, the Syrian military repelled two drones flying over an airbase in the western city of Hama. Syrian forces also downed a third one over the city of Latakia.

The attack marks the end of month-long lull in ‘Israeli’ strikes in Syria.

According to media reports, the Zionist entity’s last attacked Syria on November 20, with SANA reporting that Syrian air defense systems had fended off the ‘Israeli’ air strikes on the capital and its suburbs.

Tel Aviv also confirmed the attack, claiming to have struck dozens of what it described as Iranian and Syrian targets.

The Zionist military has carried out hundreds of airstrikes in Syria, including in the Golan Heights, most of them against what the Tel Aviv regime claims to be the positions of pro-Syrian forces.

The Syrian military has mostly intercepted the ‘Israeli’ strikes, locking its defense systems on incoming fire.
