Two Rockets from Syria Fall in Northern Israel

{Residents in Druze villages near the border reported to hearing several explosions, shortly after a Code Red rocket alert siren was sounded near the border.}

Officials at the Hermon ski site said the rockets fell in several places in the Golan Heights. “Following this, the IDF instructed to evacuate the visitors from the Hermon site … the IDF is also at the scene,” they said.

The IDF has instructed the evacuation of some 1,000 visitors from the Hermon Mountain ski site, while residents in the Maron Golan area were asked to remain in safe rooms and shelters.

Affected areas include Majdal Shams, Odem, Krum, Kafr Bukaata, Massadeh, Neve Ativ, Nimrod and Ein Kenya.

A military source told Channel 2 that despite earlier reports, two rockets did hit Israeli soil – one in the Hermon region, one in El Rom.
