False alarm activated defense system
No party, however, has claimed responsibility for the reported missile attack. According to the Pentagon, US intelligence had established that the base was the launchpad for the alleged chemical attack.
"There was no external attack on Syria", the source added.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said after the US, British, and French strikes in Syria his country will continue "to move against Iran in Syria". Several said a unusual smell started spreading and people screamed, "It's chlorine!"
The reported barrages come three days after a major missile attack by the US, United Kingdom and France on regime positions in Syria.
The Shayrat air base was the target of a U.S. cruise missile attack in 2017, in response to another chemical attack that killed at least 70 people, including children, in the rebel-held town of Khan Sheikhoun.
The reports said the missiles had targeted Shayrat airbase in Homs province and Dumair military airport, northeast of Damascus, late on Monday night.

Members of Ahmed Merhi's family were also arrested during the raids but were later released without charge. Mr Merhi's family confirmed his arrest when approached by the ABC but refused to comment any further.
Meanwhile, a Pentagon spokesman said in a brief statement that there was no US military activity in that area at this time. But it said no missiles landed inside the bases. Syria and its allies Iran and Russian Federation blamed Israel for that attack. Israel did not confirm or deny it.
The lack of access to Douma has left unanswered questions about the attack earlier this month.
Pan Arab al-Mayadeen TV said the targeting of the Dumair airbase comes a day before a deal was to be reached for the evacuation of rebels from that area.
Journalists in Damascus were prevented by government minders from contacting the OPCW inspectors, and The Hague-based organization refused to comment on "operational details regarding the Douma deployment".
Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov described it as a provocation and a very unsafe development. A odd smell lingered, nine days after the attack. As they spoke, government troops were nearby but out of earshot.
It said that air defense had been activated after a "false alarm".
