Damascus says 46 anti-tank missiles were found in a farm in eastern Daraa, allegedly prepared for smuggling.
The Syrian interior ministry announced the discovery of a missile warehouse in the rural eastern Daraa region, not far from the Israeli border. According to the official statement, the cache was located inside a farm and allegedly prepared for smuggling to what the regime calls “outlaw groups.”
Brig. Gen. Mohammad Ibrahim al-Sakhni, the internal security chief for the Daraa governorate, said the operation followed “precise information from reliable sources” about the hidden depot. Special units then conducted surveillance and launched a security raid that led to the uncovering of the cache.
Officials reported finding 42 Malyutka anti-tank missiles and 4 Metis missiles equipped with a launch platform. All seized items were transferred to what the ministry described as “secure custody,” while the site was fully secured according to official procedures.
