Air Defenses Active Over Aleppo, Syria

Update (1713 EST): The Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) has claimed responsibility for the attack, claiming that it was targeting an ISIS stronghold responsible for the Kerman and Task bombings. This was not an Israeli strike.

At approximately 1550 EST, initial reports indicated that an aerial attack was targeting Aleppo Airport in Syria.

Several local news sources claimed that Israeli airstrikes were underway over the city. Eyewitnesses took pictures of what appears to be cruise missiles flying over the city and air defense missiles streaking towards them.

There has been no comment from the Syrian government or the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) as of this publication.
