Israel and Syria fired missiles at each other early Thursday morning after Damascus launched an advanced surface-to-air missile that landed all the way in the Negev Desert.
However, the Alarms sounded in Abu Qrenat near Dimona in the South. Syria fired the missile in response to what it claims was an Israeli Air Force bombing near Damascus.
Israel frequently strikes Syria to prevent Iranian entrenchment in the country as well as weapons shipments to Hezbollah in Lebanon.
