JERUSALEM, July 4 (Xinhua) -- The Israeli military said Monday it attacked two Syrian army posts overnight Sunday after an errant projectile from the war-torn country hit the border fence.
A military spokesperson said in a statement that the shooting from Syria was "unusual" in its extent, but it "hasn't posed a danger to our forces or the residents of the area."
The spokesperson added that the military "is determined to protect (Israel) and retaliate any unusual incident."
Israel is not involved in the ongoing battles in Syria, but it usually returns fire when errant shootings from the six-year-long war in Syria hit its territory.
