As Israel announced its ground incursion on Lebanon, Syria's official news agency SANA said the country's air defense systems were intercepting "hostile targets" in the Damascus area.
Syrian state media said three civilians were killed in Israeli airstrikes on Damascus early Tuesday and nine others were wounded, citing a military source.
"The Israeli enemy launched an air aggression with warplanes and drones from the direction of the occupied Syrian Golan, targeting several points in Damascus," the official SANA news agency said, adding that "three civilians were killed and nine others injured."
Government-controlled media has documented three consecutive rounds of airstrikes within a single night in the capital, attributing responsibility to Israel.
According to a statement broadcast on state television, the network expressed sorrow over the loss of anchor Safaa Ahmad, who was reportedly killed during the Israeli assault on Damascus.
Earlier, the state-run SANA news agency indicated that "air defense systems are engaging hostile targets for the third occasion tonight in the vicinity of Damascus," employing language typically associated with Israeli airstrikes.
