Israel fires missiles into Syria

An Israeli aircraft has fired missiles at a building in Syria's Golan Heights in response to a rocket strike on an Israeli village, according to reports.

Syrian state TV said "several missiles" had hit a transport center and public building in the Height's Quneitra area, the BBC reported.

Earlier rockets landed near a village in northern Israel. There are no reports of injuries.

Israeli officials blamed the rocket strike on the Palestinian group Islamic Jihad, which denied the claim.

A statement released by the Israeli military said the rockets that hit the upper Galilee region "were launched from the Syrian Golan Heights... by Islamic Jihad".
