Stray mortar from Syria hits Golan minefield
A mortar strikes a minefield on the Israeli side of the Golan Heights, causing no damage or injuries.
The explosion was likely caused by a stray shell fired as part of the conflict in Syria, Channel 2 says.
The IDF says the shell struck the central Golan Heights, close to the security fence with Syria.
In response, the IAF targets a Syrian army launcher on the Syrian side of the Golan.
