Jerusalem: An Israeli missile strike hit a residential building in an upscale neighbourhood in the capital, Damascus, on Wednesday morning, state media and witnesses said.

State news agency SANA said the strike hit a residential building in the Kafar Sousah neighbourhood, providing no further details.

Meanwhile, sources and eyewitnesses told Xinhua that the Israeli attack targeted a residential apartment near the Cham City Centre shopping mall and an Iranian school in Kafar Sousah.
