Israeli military aircraft have carried out another act of aggression against Syria, targeting an industrial area and several residential buildings in the country’s central province of Homs.

Syria’s official news agency SANA reported that Israeli warplanes struck the industrial zone of al-Qusayr city, located about 35 kilometers (22 miles) south of Homs, near the Lebanese border, on Tuesday.

The news agency, citing the Homs province’s health director, also noted that there were no injuries as a result of the attack.

The latest attack came after at least five people lost their lives when Israeli aircraft launched multiple strikes against a number of installations and buildings in Jisr al-Daf area south of al-Qusayr on Thursday.

The so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that three airstrikes struck several facilities in the city's industrial area, stressing that Syrian air defense systems attempted to intercept and shoot down the incoming Israeli missiles.

The Israeli regime continues its bloody onslaughts in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon.

Israel frequently targets military positions inside Syria, especially those of the Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah which has played a key role in helping the Syrian army in its fight against foreign-backed terrorists.

The Tel Aviv regime rarely comments on its attacks on Syrian territories, which many see as a knee-jerk reaction to the Syrian government’s phenomenal success in confronting and decimating terrorism.

Damascus has time and again called on the UN Security Council to put an end to the regime’s attacks that violate Syria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
