Monday's news was a shocker as Israel took vengeance against Syria by aggressively striking nine targets in response to the previous missile attack the country has sustained from its constant enemy.
A military command headquarters in Syria has been destroyed after an airstrike which fired guided missiles from the ground and rocket from the air was carried out by the military group. The dispute between the two territories has been once again relived after a young Israeli boy aged 13-14 years old was killed in a previous missile attack launched on Sunday. News said that Sunday's attack targeted the Golan Heights wherein several individuals were also injured.
The attack launched by the Israel military troupes reportedly destroyed two tanks, two artillery batteries and the headquarters of the 90th brigade while news also said that 10 soldiers from the military group of Syria were killed. As the Israeli government tries to protect their civilians, today's attack was said to be an action of revenge after a young boy was killed from the Syrian attack on Sunday. With an attempt to get even, nine targets were attacked.
The killing of the young boy identified as Mohammed Karaka from the attack in the Golan Heights has actually brought another terror as the war between the two territories could even worsen in time. The boy killed in the Golan Heights attack was just spending his first day of summer by accompanying his father who was driving an Israeli water tanker when the blast happened. The news of Syria's attack against Israel on Sunday was labeled as an 'unprovoked act of aggression by Israeli military spokesman, Lt. Col. Peter Lerner.
Colonel Lerner according to New York Times has also said that what was used in the blast is still uncertain, but what was said in the previous news is that it was fired directly from east to west. It can be remembered that the Golan Heights was actually captured by Israel from Syria in the 1967 Mideast war.
The recent news of the attacks involving Syria is no longer new to them since there were already numerous attacks carried out in the past between the two nations. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel already spoke to the boy's father. His statement said that "the enemies of the state of Israel are not ashamed to use any means, they are not ashamed to attack civilians and to kill children, as they have this morning,"
