Errant Syrian mortar strikes central Golan — IDF
A mortar shell has struck the central Golan Heights, apparently errant fire from Syria, the IDF says.
The shell hits “an open area near the security fence,” the army says, likely referring to Israel’s border fence. There are no reports of injuries.
The strike comes amid reports of increased fighting between the Syrian regime and rebels in the area around Quneitra, in the demilitarized zone between Israel and Syria.
The IDF often responds to errant fire by striking Syrian army posts.
