(ANSAmed) - TEL AVIV, NOVEMBER 19 - The Israeli Iron Dome air
defense system on Tuesday morning thwarted an attack launched at
the Golan Heights from Syria.
The Israeli military spokesman said that four rockets had
been intercepted while still in the sky.
The military radio said that no casualties resulted the
inhabitants of the area are in shelters, and that it is a ''very
serious'' incident for which a reaction from the Israeli army is
to be expected.
It noted that the attack happened at 5 AM. Four rockets were
launched at Mt Hermon.
Meanwhile, life in the Golan Heights has returned to normal.
The broadcaster said that the incident should be seen as part
of efforts attributed by Israel to Iran to destabilise its
northern border, in part through Shia militias active in the
area.
On reports from Syria on explosions at the Dasmacus airport
over the night, Israel said that it had not conducted any attack
in Syria. (ANSAmed).
