Rare Rocket Attack From Syria Targets Israeli-Occupied Golan Heights; IDF Strikes Back, Blames al-Sharaa

An unusual rocket attack from Syrian territory has rattled northern Israel, triggering sirens and panic in the Golan Heights. Two rockets reportedly launched by a newly emerged militant group named after slain Hamas commander Mohammed al-Deif marked the first strike from Syria since Bashar al-Assad’s ouster. The group, operating primarily through a Telegram channel, remains unverified. Israel swiftly retaliated with artillery and airstrikes on Syrian regime positions, with explosions reported in Daraa and Quneitra. Israel’s defense minister held Syria’s new president responsible and warned of future consequences, while Damascus denied involvement and condemned the Israeli response, citing human and material losses.#syria #israel #alsharaa #netanyahu #idf
