Israeli armed forces attacked positions of the Syrian military in the central part of Golan Heights on Monday night, hours after an artillery shell fired from Syria fell in the region...
ReplyDeleteA statement by the Israeli military said the air force targeted positions of the Syrian regime in Syrian Golan Heights in response to the projectile that hit Israel Monday evening.
This is the fourth such incident in the past week, giving rise to media speculation that the situation in the border region could be worsening.
It is also the first such incident since the ceasefire in Syrian under the US-Russia deal came into effect at 4pm GMT Monday.
The Golan Heights, occupied by Israel since 1967, has been a scene of tension since the start of the Syrian conflict in March 2011 and border skirmishes between the two countries are a common occurrence.
