Israel targeted two army bases near Damascus: Sate TV, activists

 (Zaman Al Wasl) Israel has waged two missile attacks on Syrian military bases on Monday, according to the State TV and local activists. 

The Syrian regime said the Israeli missiles had targeted Jamraya town, about 5 km (3 miles) northwest of the capital. 

According to secret document obtained by Zaman al-Wasl, the Syrian regime on September 19, 2013, had transferred most of chemical weapons stockpiles from the Institute 1000 in Jamraya to 105th Brigade near the Presidential Palace in Damascus which led by Maher al-Assad, de-facto military commander of Syria after the deadly Sarin gas attack on Eastern Ghouta suburbs.

Moving most of the chemical arsenal was at the same day when the regime handed the UN Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) a list of chemical sites in the war-torn country, following the Eastern Ghouta Chemical attack on August 21, 2013 when more than 1460 died in the nerve gas attack, two weeks before the arrival of the United Nations inspectors on October 3. 

Local activists said the second Israeli strike hit a Radar base near Dumeir military airport, 45 km (30 miles) east of Damascus. 

The Syrian TV said three Israeli missiles were intercepted by the air defence.

Monday’s attack came few days since the Israeli Air Force missiles destroyed an Iranian facility in al-Qiswa town which was under construction, the Times of Israel said.
