A series of explosions were heard early on Friday with only a short time separating them in Lattakia city in Syria. They later turned out to be the result of a number of rockets which hit a military barrack in Al-Samia village, only 20 kilometers away from Lattakia.

A military source told Al-Manar website that the rockets were fired from hotspots in the northern countryside, considering that they were likely fired from “Salma” region”.

The source pointed out that the military barrack, which was attacked with the rocket, was wide, and contained a number of armories, hence, such an attack could only hit the empty fields without leaving casualties.

The military source further denied that “this operation targeted the military barrack from the sea or airspace.”
