The IDF says tanks and artillery shelled Syrian Army sites in southern Syria that had violated a 1974 disengagement agreement.
According to the IDF, the structures erected in the Syrian Golan Heights were a violation of the Agreement on Disengagement signed in 1974 between Israel and Syria, which concluded the Yom Kippur War.
“The IDF considers the Syrian Army responsible for everything that happens in its territory and will not allow attempts to violate the disengagement agreement,” the military adds.
