Syrian media report second Israeli barrage after mortar shell lands on Golan
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleSyrian media is reporting a second retaliatory barrage of Israeli tank fire on Syrian military positions on the Golan Heights.
Earlier, Israeli tanks bombarded a Syrian army artillery position from which a mortar shell was fired that struck an open field on the northern Golan Heights, in an apparent case of spillover fire.
No injuries or damage were caused by the errant Syrian mortar shell, but the IDF said in a statement that it would not tolerate violations of Israeli sovereignty.
The IDF could not immediately confirm the second strike.
