IDF destroys Syrian army post in response to shelling in Golan
The IDF fired a Tamuz surface-to-surface missile at a Syrian army post on Saturday, after several Syrian mortar shells exploded in the Golan Heights.
The Tamuz - a guided missile - accurately struck its target.
Earlier on Saturday, Syrian shells fell in open areas on the Golan Heights, near the Israeli-Syrian border. No injuries or damages were reported.
Israel submitted an official complaint to the UN over the mortars, an army spokesman said.
The official complaint to the UN is kind of useless, but I hope at least we're hitting back the side that is hitting us.
Intense battles between Syrian rebels and Assad regime forces occurred near the border throughout Saturday. Over ten injured Syrian civilians were evacuated to Israeli hospitals in the North for treatment over the weekend.
