Israeli military says three rockets launched from Syria toward Israel-occupied Golan Heights, a rare attack that comes as Israeli troops kill 20-year-old Palestinian man in occupied West Bank
Rockets have been fired from Syria after Israel began calling up police and army reservists following attacks that killed three people, including an Italian tourist, and earlier rocket fire from Lebanon and besieged Gaza.
Ahed Salim, 20, was hit in the chest and belly by live fire in Azzun near Qalqilyah, the ministry said in a brief statement, without giving further details. Israeli actions sparked rocket fire from besieged Gaza and southern Lebanon followed by Israeli bombarded on both Gaza and Lebanon."One of the rockets crossed into Israeli territory and landed in open areas in the southern Golan Heights" which are occupied by Israel, the army said.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the rocket launches, which caused no damage or casualties.
