“We don’t know if it’s an airstrike or a ground operation,” Rami Abdel Rahman, head of the Observatory, which is based in Britain but has a wide network of sources in Syria, told AFP.
For its part, the official Sana news agency reported that overnight “sounds of explosions” were heard in the “outskirts of Damascus”, without specifying the cause.
