The Israeli military attacked Syrian military positions in response to rockets fired from Syria at Mount Hermon in the occupied Golan Heights, the army said Sunday.
Two rockets were fired from Syria at Mount Hermon late Saturday, with the army saying in a Sunday statement that one of them was “located within Israeli territory.”
In response the army attacked “two Syrian artillery batteries, a number of observation and intelligence posts on the Golan Heights, and an SA-2 aerial defense battery,” the statement said.
“During the strikes, an Israeli aerial defense system was activated due to Syrian anti-aircraft shooting. None of the rockets exploded in Israel.”
A statement from the military said it held the Syrian regime accountable “for every action taken against Israel.”
