The IDF on Wednesday night the eve of 5 Elul targeted a mortar-firing position on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights after another rocket landed on the Israeli side hours earlier, apparently a stray rocket from the ongoing civil war in that country.

B’chasdei Hashem there was no loss of life, injuries or damages resulting from the rocket fire into the northern Golan Heights.

In an official IDF statement Israel holds Syria responsible for any and all rocket fire coming over its border and such incidents will not be tolerated.

The rocket incident was the second this week and the third this month.
