Explosions were heard near Hama airport in Syria on Friday, Syrian state
media said, without giving details. Sky News in Arabic reported that surface-to-air missiles belonging to Iranian militias were hit.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the series of explosions were
near Hama's military airport and had been heard in Hama city. The blasts
killed at least 11 government soldiers and allied fighters, they reported.

According to reports, the explosions went off in fuel and arms depots.

"The reason behind the blasts is unknown still, but it might be due to
high temperatures or a technical fault," Rami Abdel Rahman, the head of
the observatory, told dpa.

Last Wednesday, Iranian forces fired 20 rockets at Israel Defense Forces positions in the Golan Heights. Four of the rockets aimed toward Israel
were intercepted by the Iron Dome air defense system while the remaining rockets exploded on Syrian territory, the military said.

The Iranian attack prompted the most extensive Israeli strike on Syria in decades; overnight, Israel openly attacked dozens of Iranian military and logistics targets in Syria.

The Israeli military accused the Revolutionary Guards' Al Quds force and
its commander, Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani, of launching the attack at the Israeli Golan Heights. The attack was most likely in retaliation for
previous attacks on attributed to Israel on Iranian bases and positions in Syria.

(on the ground) about it?
