Israeli drone fires at Syrian Army in the Golan Heights

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.
