IDF confirms gunfire on troops close to Syrian side of Golan
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe IDF determines that shots were indeed fired at troops stationed near the Syrian border in the northern Golan Heights, a spokesperson says.
After receiving initial reports of gunfire earlier this afternoon, an army investigation finds that shots were fired at the troops as they conducted “routine activity” along the border, although the army declines to say what evidence leads them to that conclusion.
It is not immediately clear who fired the shots or from where, a spokesperson says, but it appears they came from the Syrian side of the border.
The army investigation is ongoing.
