Syrian air defence was intercepting 'hostile targets' in the country's central region on Sunday evening, state media said, a phrase usually used to refer to Israeli strikes on the war-torn country.
"Our air defence systems are intercepting hostile targets in the airspace of the central region" of the country, the official SANA news agency said, as the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights war monitor reported "Israeli strikes" causing explosions in Homs province, central Syria.
