Syrian Rebel Groups Seen Behind Some Errant Fire in Israel's Golan
(Times of Israel) Avi Issacharoff - Errant mortar fire from Syria that has landed on the Israeli side of the Golan Heights over the past two weeks has been fired by Syrian opposition groups as well as by Syrian army forces, Israeli security sources said Thursday. There was no indication presently that the mortar fire was intentional. The recent upsurge in stray fire stems from the growing success of President Assad's forces in recent days, which has forced rebel fighters into areas closer to the Israeli border, Israeli analysts said.
