«Breaking News» Hezbollah leaders injured as Israel launches Christmas Day airstrikes in Syria

Israel has carried out Christmas Day airstrikes against targets around the Syrian capital Damascus, according to the country's state-run media. 

Israeli warplanes flying above Lebanon reportedly launched 22 missiles at multiple targets used by Iran and Hezbollah, prompting Syrian air defences to fire back.

Senior Hezbollah figures boarding a plane bound for Iran were wounded during the attack, according to security sources who spoke to Newsweek.

Syrian air defences around Damascus began firing on Christmas Day after Israeli warplanes carried out airstrikes against arms dumps around the city, state media reported

Syria said that most incoming missiles were destroyed, but that one of the depots was hit, wounding three soldiers

The airstrike was conducted just minutes after they had boarded the aircraft.

Three soldiers were also wounded during the attack after explosives hit an arms dump, according to Syrian media.

Pro-Iranian military outposts, air defence facilities and military headquarters were also damaged in the strikes, according to the Jerusalem Post.

Syrian media said that most of the incoming missiles were intercepted by its defences, which were filmed firing overnight.

The attacks come after President Donald Trump said that America will withdraw all 2,000 troops from the country.

The news stoked fears in Israel that Iran and Hezbollah will exploit the power vaccum to further entrench themselves in Syria, which Israel views as an existential threat.

One of the incoming missiles hit an arms dump injuring three soldiers, according to Syria. Israel has not acknowledged any strikes took place.

Meanwhile Turkey began massing tanks along its border with Syria as countries moved to fill the power vaccum that will be left after America withdraws its troops.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that Israel would 'continue to act against Iran's attempts to entrench itself militarily in Syria, and to the extent necessary, we will even expand our actions there.'

Nearly an hour after the attacks began, Damascus residents could still hear the air defense units firing toward targets in the air.

'The aggression is still ongoing,' said a presenter on state TV, which interrupted its programs to air patriotic songs.

Later the TV quoted an unnamed military official as saying that Syrian air defenses 'shot down most of the missiles before reaching their targets and the aggression damaged an arms depot and wounded three soldiers.' 

It added that the Israeli warplanes fired the missiles from Lebanese airspace.

Israel's military spokesman's unit did not confirm the raids, but said in a statement that 'an aerial defense system was activated against an anti-aircraft missile launched from Syria.' 

No damage or injuries were reported by the Israeli military.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
