Israel targets Syrian army after errant fire hits Golan

The Israeli military says it has fired at Syrian army cannons in the Syrian Golan Heights in response to mortar fire from Syria that hit the Israeli-held Golan Heights.

 

The army says that the mortars appeared to be errant fire from Syria's civil war, and were not deliberately targeting Israeli-held territory.

 

No injuries were reported Sunday.

 

The military says it holds the Syrian government accountable for the "blatant breach of Israeli sovereignty."
