Israel strikes Syrian military positions near Golan Heights

Israel launched strikes on Syrian military positions Saturday near the Golan Heights after it said projectiles were fired at Israel from inside Syria.

The action was a response to what the IDF said were more than 10 projectiles fired into Israel from inside Syria. The IDF described the projectile fire as "errant," blaming it on internal fighting.

Israeli aircraft targeted three positions from which the projectiles were fired, the IDF said. The strikes included hits on two tanks belonging to the Syrian regime, CNN reported.

Syrian state-run news agency SANA reported several people were killed in the Israeli strikes.
