Syrian reconnaissance outposts observed an Israeli drone flying high above the occupied Golan Heights at around noon today.
The drone later launched two missiles towards a government-held checkpoint near Samadaniyah al-Sharqi, a town in the Quneitra countryside.
The missiles struck military positions controlled by the pro-government National Defence Forces’ (NDF) Golan Regiment; fortunately for the Syrian troops, no casualties were inflicted upon them.
Though the commander-in-chief of the NDF’s Golan regiment, Majd Hemoud, was only a few hundred meters away from where the bombs landed, the NDF did not react to the aggression.
Israel and Syria remain in a technical state of war following three major wars during which Israel seized much of the Golan Heights from Syria.
