Israel launches air raid on Syria in return for Golan fire
Israel posts video showing what it says were machine-gun position and two tanks being targeted from above and blown up

An Israeli aircraft carried out a strike on Syria after 10 projectiles fired from the war-torn country hit the occupied Golan Heights on Saturday, an army spokesman said.

The Israeli air force also targeted two Syrian regime tanks in the northern part of the Golan, the spokesman said, adding that the projectiles did not cause any casualties.

"Because of the unacceptable violation of Israeli sovereignty", Israel has protested to the United Nations Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF), which monitors a 1974 ceasefire between the two countries, he added.

The Israeli military posted a video on Twitter showing what it said were a machine-gun position and two tanks being targeted from above and blown up.
