IAF strikes Syrian military locations near Golan Heights
JERUSALEM — Israeli warplanes attacked Syrian military positions on Wednesday in retaliation for a bombing the previous day, in the most serious confrontation between the two foes since the Syrian conflict erupted three years ago.If Syria's attempting to win favor with jihadists by attacking Israelis, this is what they deserve.
Syria said one of its soldiers was killed and seven were injured when three army positions near the town of Quneitra were struck on the Syrian side of the ceasefire line between the two countries in the Golan Heights.
Israel said the targets were an army training facility, a military headquarters and an artillery battery, and that the raids came in response to a bombing along the line on Tuesday that injured four Israeli soldiers.
