Three Syrian Druze, who were apparently wounded during sectarian violence in the country, were evacuated by the Israeli military to a hospital a short while ago, the IDF says.

The three arrived at the Israeli border and were initially taken to the Nafah base in the Golan Heights. They were then taken to Ziv Hospital in Safed for treatment.

“The IDF is monitoring developments in the Syrian region, and forces are deployed in readiness for defense and various scenarios,” the military says.
