“At 17:35 today Islamic Jihad fired four rockets at northern Israel from the Syrian Golan Heights. Two rockets hit the Upper Galilee and two hit the Israeli Golan Heights.

In response, IAF and artillery targeted 14 Syrian military posts in the Syrian Golan Heights.

Iran sponsored these attacks. These were clear and intentional acts of aggression, directly violating Israelis sovereignty. The IDF holds the Syrian government responsible for all attacks emanating from Syrian territory and will continue to protect and safeguard the State of Israel.” (An IDF Spokesperson statement, 20/08/2015)
