Six rockets, in two different phases, were launched from southern Syria towards the Golan Heights in Israel. Confirmation comes from the military spokesman according to which three rockets have fallen on Israeli territory. In response, the army attacked Syria for the first time with artillery and drones and rocket launchers. Subsequently, the air force hit other targets including a military compound of the Syrian Army's Fourth Division, military radar systems and artillery posts.

The Jewish state has recently intensified its raids in Syria, targeting in particular the positions of pro-Iranian groups, its number one enemy. Thirty rockets were fired from Lebanon towards Israel on Thursday, wounding one person and causing material damage. The Israeli military later claimed that the launches are "Palestinians", most likely from the ruling Islamist movement Hamas in the Gaza Strip. Israel reacted by carrying out attacks in Gaza and southern Lebanon.
