SANA added that people had gathered for a religious celebration marking the opening of the Hagia Sophia Church in the city.
Apart from sporadic terrorist attacks on civilian and Syrian army’s targets, the Israeli regime also almost frequently launch missile attacks on positions in Hama and the Arab country’s other provinces.
While the Daesh Takfiri terrorist group was crushed by Damascus with the help of resistance groups in the region, the remnants of Daesh and other militant groups continue to hold sway in some parts of the country.
Israel has been the principal supporter of terrorist groups that oppose the democratically-elected government of President Bashar al-Assad since the foreign-backed militancy erupted in Syria.
