A Hezbollah missile hit Syria’s Golan Heights, killing many. A missile fired by Hizbullah terrorists killed 12 children in Majdal Shams under Israeli control. The missile landed on the ground where Majdal Shamsil was playing soccer ball. At this time the children were playing on the ground. It is also believed that the missile fired by Hezbollah towards Israel missed its target. All the dead are Syrian Muslims.
Majdal Shams Galon is in the mountain ranges. Since the 1967 Arab-Israeli War, Majdal Shams has been under Israeli control. But the international community recognizes it (along with the Golan Heights) as part of Syria. That means Hezbollah’s missile landed in an area claimed by Syria and Israel. Originally governed under an Israeli military governorate, but after the Knesset passed the Golan Heights Act in 1981, the region was effectively annexed by Israel’s regional councils, a move officially recognized only by the United States. Majdal Shams, now hit by a Hezbollah missile, is one of four Syrian Druze communities left in Israeli-occupied territories.
This is what the Israeli army says about this.,…This is a missile of 50 kilograms of explosives. Made in Iran. We know exactly where the rocket was launched from. Here we check the remains of the rocket on the wall of the football field, it is a Hezbollah rocket. “Whoever fires such a rocket into an urban area wants to kill civilians, wants to kill children,” Israeli spokesman Halevi said in a video statement from the scene.
“As we simultaneously fight in Gaza, we are greatly increasing our readiness for the next phase of the conflict in the north. We can attack even far away from the state of Israel. There will be more challenges. We will raise our readiness,” he said. “We will act forcefully when necessary. Israel has stated that it will retaliate against Hizbullah, who put a missile in the children’s playground. We have proved that Israel can go to any part of the world and fight any distance.
On behalf of myself and the entire security establishment, I would like to convey our condolences to the families on this grave incident – a terrible tragedy. Innocent boys and girls, it hurts. Hezbollah is responsible and they will pay the price, he said.IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi said the army was increasing readiness for the “next phase of the fight in the north” following the attack. Defense Minister Yoav Galant visited the site of the attack on Sunday morning. Hezbollah vowed to “pay the price” and the entire state of Israel expressed solidarity with Majdal Shams.
Meanwhile, a search is on for the missing child after the attack. “Relatives of 11-year-old Che Guevara Ibrahim have searched all the hospitals and surrounding areas but have not been able to find the child. The Foreign Ministry said on Sunday that Hezbollah had crossed all red lines with the attack. It is not an army fighting against another army, but a terrorist organization that deliberately fires at civilians,” the ministry said in a statement.
Regarding this, the locals say that Hezbollah is a terrorist organization that kills its own people. Immediately after the attack, 30 injured people have arrived and 15 of them are still in the hospital. Salman Zarka said. Several children injured in the attack remain in critical condition in the northern pediatric intensive care unit, and many have permanent injuries, hospitals said Sunday morning. It was the deadliest Hezbollah attack since the terrorist group launched an offensive in northern Israel on Oct 8.
But the missile fired at Israel is also believed to have gone in the wrong direction. All of the dead from the missile strike in this part of Syria were Muslims. Residents and first responders described scenes of bloody carnage on the football field. Although a warning siren sounded, it was a very brief warning to the victims who could not escape in time.
