A military statement said that “two projectiles were identified crossing from Syria into Israeli territory, and fell in open areas”, adding in a subsequent statement that its “artillery struck in southern Syria” following the launches.
Britain-based war monitor the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said bombardments had hit farmland in the province, without reporting casualties.
Israel said it had targeted weapons belonging to Syrian authorities following the launch of the projectiles.
Katz, the Israeli defence minister, said in a statement released by his office that “we view the president of Syria as directly responsible for any threat or fire directed at the State of Israel.”
Syria’s interim president, Ahmed al-Sharaa, led the Islamist group that spearheaded the offensive that toppled longtime ruler Bashar al-Assad in December.
Following his overthrow, Israel moved its forces into the UN-patrolled demilitarised zone in the Golan Heights, and has carried out hundreds of strikes against military targets in Syria.
In a statement on Sunday, Israel’s military said its troops were continuing “defensive operations in southern Syria” to “dismantle terrorist infrastructure and protect the residents of the Golan Heights”.
Syria and Israel have technically been at war since 1948.
