The Israeli military says it has launched artillery attacks on Syria after several rockets were fired from Syrian territory toward northern Israel, none of which caused damage or casualties.

The Israeli Defense Forces carried out cross-border attacks early on Sunday as the country escalated its violence on various fronts, including Gaza, Lebanon, and the West Bank. There was no immediate comment from the Syrian government.

The Israeli military said it had launched artillery attacks and a drone against the rocket launchers in Syria.

There were two rounds of rocket launches from Syrian territory in the early hours of Sunday, it said. The first involved three rockets, one of which landed in a field in the Israeli-annexed Golan Heights.

The second launch, which also involved three rockets, set off sirens in northern Israel. There were no reports of casualties. Jordan’s army said debris from a rocket fell into its territory but caused no casualties or damage.
Lebanon-based Al Mayadeen TV said the rocket launches were claimed by the al-Quds Brigades, the armed wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement.
