An onslaught launched by the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Sunday morning, in response to alleged mortar shells that slammed into the occupied Syrian Golan Heights, killed four unidentified persons.
The Hebrew-language Maariv news site claimed an Israeli army patrol stationed near the southern Golan Heights was targeted with gunshots fired from the Syrian borders, at the same time as three mortar shells were dropped on the area. No injuries were reported in the alleged attack.
The same source added that the three mortar shells, which were unleashed from the Syrian territories, had slammed into the security fence.
A probe has been launched by the occupation army to find out about the reasons for the attacks launched from the Syrian borderland.
An Israeli army spokesman claimed that gunmen opened fire at Israeli soldiers while they were carrying out works near the border fence with Syria.
Israel’s Channel 2 quoted the spokesman as stating that the occupation army discharged barrages of machinegun fire in response to the attack.
Similar attacks have been occasionally recorded in the territory.

Mohammed Nabil Salam 14
Israeli policemen gunned down a Palestinian child to the northeast of Occupied Jerusalem on Friday evening.
The policemen, manning a road barrier at the entrance of Shufat refugee camp, opened fire at 16-year-old Mohammed Nabil Salam killing him instantly, Palestinian sources said.
The child’s name was voiced via mosques’ loudspeakers at the refugee camp where a general mourning was declared and all shops closed down.
Luba al-Samri, the Israeli police spokeswoman, claimed that the child was carrying a knife and tried to stab a policeman but was shot and “neutralized”, which is an Israeli term meaning that he was killed.
She said that Israeli security and police forces arrived at the scene to investigate the incident.
Eyewitnesses said that an Israeli policeman fired at the boy as soon as he disembarked from a bus and left him bleeding for half an hour before he was covered with a black cover indicating that he was dead.
The Israeli police closed the Shufat road barrier immediately after the incident and blocked traffic in both directions.
Israeli Army Kills A Palestinian Child Near Jerusalem
Israeli soldiers shot and killed, on Friday evening, a Palestinian child at a military roadblock near Shu’fat refugee camp, east of occupied East Jerusalem, after the army alleged he attempted to stab a soldier. The child was born with one kidney, and has a disease in the other.
The child has been identified as Mohammad Nabil Zeidan, 14, from Bir Nibala town, northeast of Jerusalem. He was living with his family in Shu’fat refugee camp, in Jerusalem.
Zeidan was born with one kidney, while his other kidney requires regular dialysis to avoid kidney failure that would put his life at risk.
Israeli daily Haaretz quoted the army alleging that the soldiers were inspecting passengers on a minibus coming from Shu’fat, “before the child pulled a knife from his shirt and tried to stab an officer.”
After killing the child, the army summoned his father, interrogated him for more than two hours, and then released him.
“We do not know exactly what happened, but we do not trust the army narrative,” his uncle Abdullah Al-Alqam said, “Also, the soldiers could have easily shot him in his limbs, but it appears they just wanted to execute him.”
