Iron Dome Intercepts 4 Rockets from Syria Aimed at Israel's Golan Heights
The rocket alert went off for Israeli communities on the Golan Height, at 4:52 Tuesday morning.
The IDF spokesperson reports that 4 missiles were launched at Israel from Syrian territory and all 4 were intercepted by the Iron Dome anti-missile system. It does not appear that any missiles landed in Israel.
Residents report hearing 3 booms.
There are no special alerts for Golan Heights residents this morning.
Arab media reported that explosions were heard near the Damascus International Airport from a possible missile strike.
But, according to Maariv reporter Tal Lev-Ram, the rockets were launched at Israel from Damascus, and contrary to Arab reports, there was no Israeli attack last night near Damascus.
According to Channel 13 reporter Alon Ben-David, the attack was launched by an Iranian force in response to a previous Israeli attack. Ben-David did not specify when or where that attack happened, but added that last night there was no such IDF attack.

הרקטות שוגרו בידי כח איראני מאזור דמשק, כנראה בתגובה לתקיפה שארעה לאחרונה. בצה"ל לא מגיבים על הדיווחים על תקיפה בסוריה, אולם הלילה לא היתה כזאת. ישראל תתקשה לעבור בשתיקה על הירי הבוקר לחרמון

ירי הרקטות היה מאזור דמשק, להבנתי לא היתה תקיפה ישראלית הלילה וצריך לקחת בערבון מוגבל את הדיווחים מסוריה, על תקיפה שקדמה לכאורה לירי הטילים.
