Iranian forces fired missiles from Syria at Israeli targets in the occupied Golan Heights late on Wednesday, the Israeli army said.

 

"Dangerous Iranian aggression. At 00:10, around 20 missiles were fired by the Iranian Quds Force at military outposts in the Golan Heights. Some missiles were intercepted and it is not known if there are casualties," Israeli army spokesman Avichai Adrai said on Twitter.

 

He added: "We consider this incident an Iranian attack and we view it as dangerous. We are prepared to face various scenarios. At this moment, there are no special instructions for the domestic front."

 

The pro-Tehran Al-Mayadeen Arab satellite television said "dozens of missiles" were fired at Israeli posts in Golan.

 

Israel retaliated by bombing targets in Syria near Golan.
