Syria denounces the death of a civilian in an Israeli attack on a town in the Golan Heights

The Syrian authorities have denounced this Thursday the death of a civilian in a projectile attack carried out by the Israeli Army against a town located in the Golan Heights, without the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) having ruled on the matter. .

According to information collected by the Syrian state news agency, SANA, the deceased, who has not been identified, was hit by a projectile near his home in the Al Marj area, west of Quneitra. The rocket has been launched from the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights area.

However, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has indicated on its website that the deceased “carried out monitoring and follow-up tasks” for the Lebanese Shiite militia party Hezbollah, which for now has not reacted to the attack.

Thus, the agency, based in London and informants in the Arab country, has indicated that “the man was attacked by an Israeli drone near his house in Maqlaa Hadi, west of Hadar.”

The Golan Heights is a territory that Israel seized from Syria during the Six-Day War (1967) and the Yom Kippur War (1973) and which was effectively annexed in 1981, in a move not recognized by the international community. .

Likewise, the Israeli Army has carried out dozens of bombings in Syria, arguing that they are acting to prevent the establishment of Iranian bases in the country and the sending of weapons to Hezbollah by the Iranian authorities, which support Damascus in the framework of the war that broke out in 2011.
