Explosions were heard near Damascus early on Sunday morning, according to the Syrian state media outlet SANA. The report added that the cause of the explosions was being verified.
While state media has not attributed the explosions to alleged Israeli airstrikes, opposition-affiliated media has done so, with as of yet unverified footage shared on social media showing explosions and fires erupting in areas northwest of Damascus.
