Several Israeli missiles struck near the Mazzeh airbase outside Damascus overnight without causing any casualties, Syrian regime media reported on Wednesday.

"At 3:00 am (0100 GMT), the Israeli enemy fired several surface-to-surface missiles from inside occupied territory," the state news agency SANA said, citing a military source.

SANA said the missiles were fired from a position "west of Tal Abu Nada", a mountain in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights known as Mount Avital in Israel.

It said they caused a fire but no casualties.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based monitor, earlier reported the sounds of explosions in the area of the airbase and said fires had erupted inside the facility afterwards.

It did not confirm the source of the explosions.

The Mazzeh airbase, less than eight kilometers (five miles) southwest of Damascus, hosts the headquarters of the feared air force intelligence service and its notorious prison.

It was the second time in eight days that Israel, which is technically still at war with Syria, had targeted positions outside Damascus.

It has sought to limit its involvement in the five-year conflict in Syria, but has carried out sporadic sorties against Hezbollah inside Syria.

The Lebanese militant group, which fought a devastating war with Israel in 2006, had sent thousands of its men to fight alongside Syrian government troops.

Israel seized 1,200 square kilometres (460 square miles) of the Golan from Syria in the Six-Day War of 1967 and later annexed it in a move never recognised by the international community.

Beberapa rudal Israel menghantam dekat pangkalan udara Mazzeh luar Damaskus semalam tanpa menimbulkan korban, media rezim Suriah melaporkan pada hari Rabu.

"Pada 03:00 (0100 GMT), musuh Israel menembakkan beberapa rudal permukaan-ke-permukaan dari wilayah dalam diduduki," kata kantor berita negara SANA mengatakan, mengutip sumber militer.

SANA mengatakan rudal ditembakkan dari posisi "barat dari Tal Abu Nada", sebuah gunung di Heights Golan yang diduduki Israel dikenal sebagai Gunung Avital di Israel.

Dikatakan mereka menyebabkan kebakaran namun tidak ada korban.

Observatorium Suriah untuk Hak Asasi Manusia, monitor yang berbasis di Inggris, sebelumnya melaporkan suara ledakan di daerah pangkalan udara dan mengatakan kebakaran telah meletus dalam fasilitas sesudahnya.

Itu tidak mengkonfirmasi sumber ledakan.

The Mazzeh pangkalan udara, kurang dari delapan kilometer (lima mil) barat daya dari Damaskus, tuan rumah markas pelayanan angkatan udara intelijen ditakuti dan penjara terkenal nya.

Ini adalah kedua kalinya dalam delapan hari bahwa Israel, yang secara teknis masih berperang dengan Suriah, telah ditargetkan posisi di luar Damaskus.

Ia telah berusaha membatasi keterlibatannya dalam konflik lima tahun di Suriah, namun telah dilakukan sorties sporadis terhadap Hizbullah di dalam wilayah Suriah.

Kelompok militan Lebanon, yang berperang dengan Israel pada tahun 2006, telah mengirimkan ribuan orang untuk berjuang bersama pasukan pemerintah Suriah.

Israel merebut 1.200 kilometer persegi (460 mil persegi) dari Golan dari Suriah dalam Perang Enam Hari tahun 1967 dan kemudian mencaploknya dalam sebuah langkah yang tidak pernah diakui oleh masyarakat internasional.
