DAMASCUS: Syria said Israel had carried out a missile attack that caused wounded on Monday, in what Israel’s army said was a retaliatory strike.

“An Israeli missile targeted Tel al Shaar in Quneitra,” the Syrian news agency said, adding a “military vehicle was targeted and there are wounded”.

The Israeli military confirmed it carried out an air strike in Syria in revenge for what it said was anti-aircraft fire targeting one of its fighter jets.

The Syrian province of Quneitra includes the Golan Heights.

An Israel spokesman said in a statement,“Earlier today, Syrian anti-aircraft systems fired at an Israeli fighter jet during a routine flight in northern Israel,”
