JERUSALEM, Oct 10 (Reuters) - Israeli troops fired artillery and mortar shells toward Syria on Tuesday after a number of shells launched from its northern neighbour landed in open areas on Israeli territory, Israel’s military said.
A source in southern Syria said a Palestinian faction had fired three rockets toward Israel.
The development raises fears the violence could lead to a wider war, as Israel trades cross-border salvoes with Lebanon’s Hezbollah and battles Hamas militants in Gaza.
The military said its soldiers had fired “toward the origin of the launching in Syria”. It did not provide details.
There were no reports of damage or injuries.
Syria didn’t attack Israel, a Palestinian-aligned Muslim extremist group did.
The reality is that none of these groups can begin to fight an actual war against anyone with US backing.
The carrier group currently moved near Israel will perform strategic strikes and dismantle any offensive any of these groups try, and that will be that.
You’re probably right, I was confused to hear about this.
Wait would the US actively participate in a war against Israel? I thought they only gave aid.
