Damascus airport reopens after Israeli raid kills Syrian soldiers

Syria’s military says Israeli missiles have killed at least two Syrian soldiers and temporarily put the country’s main international airport out of service.

The volley of air-launched missiles came from the direction of Lake Tiberias in Israel at about 2am local time on Monday (23:00 GMT Sunday) and targeted the Damascus International Airport and its surroundings, the military said in a statement carried by the official SANA news agency.
