Did War Just Begin? IAF
Strikes and Iranian Fires Rocket at Golan
A daring Israeli daylight airstrike led to Iranian forces in Syria firing a rocket at the Golan leading an Israeli minister to call this “open confrontation with Iran.” Shortly after the airstrikes, IDF Iron Dome anti-missile systems shot down a projectile fired at Israel from Syria on Sunday. The rocket fire was observed by Israeli civilians skiing on the slopes of Mount Hermon. The IDF blamed Iranian Al Quds forces for the missile fired at Israel.

“On January 21, 2019, between 2:11 a.m. and 2:56 a.m. the Israeli Air Defense carried out three airstrikes on Syria’s territory from the western, southwestern, and southern directions,” the Russian military statement said. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported missile strikes near the Damascus airport and in areas around the capital saying the missiles hit apparent weapons depots of Iranian forces and Lebanon’s Shi’ite militant group Hizballah. 11 casualties were reported.

Intelligence Minister Israel Katz discussed the recent exchange of fire on Monday morning in an interview with Army Radio.

“This was a clear message to the Iranians,” Katz said in the interview. “The policy has changed. This is an open confrontation with Iran. When we need to step it up, we’ll step it up.”

“We won’t allow their entrenchment in Syria,” he said. Katz emphasized that the missile shot at Israel from Syria a direct attack. “Whoever attacks us will pay a heavy price,” he warned.
