After several mortar shell �spillover� attacks from Syria into the northern Golan Heights over the weekend, the IAF once again retaliated, striking targets in Syria belonging to Basher el-Assad. The retaliatory strike came after a motzei Shabbos attack, representing about 18 mortar shells crossing the border into northern Israel in a one-week period.
It is reported the IAF eliminated a Syrian artillery position in the retaliatory raid. Once again, the IDF spokesman issued a statement that while the IDF is not becoming involved in the ongoing Syrian Civil War, it will not tolerate rocket spillover into Israel.
B�chasdei Hashem there were no fatalities or injuries in any of the mortar shell incidents.
