Israel said to strike Syria in retaliation for errant mortar fire

Israel is reportedly targeting Syrian military positions on the Golan Heights, hours after a mortar shell landed inside Israel.

According to al-Jazeera, the IAF is striking the source of the mortar fire in the Quneitra area.

The IDF says the mortars that landed in Israel earlier today appeared to be spillover from the raging civil war in Syria.

There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage from the Israeli retaliation.
