Syrian state media reported loud explosions in the Syrian coastal Latakia province on Monday evening, saying they likely resulted from Israeli strikes targeting a state company for technical industries.
A military official said more strikes targeted the provincial capital from the sea but Syrian air defenses intercepted them.
The state-run Al-Ikhbariya TV reported the explosions late Monday. Nearly half an hour later, it said the strikes continued. It showed footage of what appeared to be fire in a pitch black area. The TV said the target was the Institute for Technical industries in Latakia province.
A military official quoted on state media said Syrian air defenses intercepted strikes coming from the sea.
State media reported another suspected Israeli attack on Damascus' International Airport Saturday night.
