The Latest: Syrian fire hits Golan during Netanyahu visit

13 minutes ago

ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — The Latest on the conflict in Syria (all times local):

11:30 p.m.

Israel’s military targeted a Syrian military post that fired a mortar into the Israeli-controlled side of the Golan Heights during Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to the area.

Netanyahu was visiting an Israeli town in the Golan Wednesday. He said Israel’s policy is “whoever attacks us, we will attack him.”

The military said the mortar was “errant fire” from Syria and landed in an open area causing no injuries near the border, far from where Netanyahu visited.

It was the latest shell in several such incidents this week.
