Services at Aleppo airport were disrupted after Israel carried out airstrikes early Tuesday and all flights were diverted to the other two airports. The media gave this information. State news agency SANA quoted a military source as saying that Israeli warplanes targeted Aleppo International Airport from the Mediterranean Sea. The attack “damaged the airport and disrupted services,” according to the news agency.
Israeli officials have not yet commented on the matter. It is also not clear whether there have been any casualties in this attack. Syria’s transport ministry has said that flights that were supposed to reach Aleppo will now land in Damascus or Latakia. Aleppo airport, badly devastated by the Syrian civil war, was badly damaged in a 7.8-magnitude earthquake that struck Turkey and Syria last month. At least five people were killed and 15 wounded in Israeli airstrikes on residential areas of the Syrian capital, Damascus, on February 19.
