Israel says it has attacked several Syrian military sites in retaliation for a bombing that wounded four of its troops in the occupied Golan Heights.

Syrian state media said one soldier was killed and seven others were wounded at three positions outside Quneitra.

The Israeli military said the targets had included a headquarters, a training facility and artillery batteries.

The Syrian army had "aided and abetted" the attack on a patrol near the ceasefire line on Tuesday, it added.

But the Syrian General Command of the Army and Armed Forces was quoted as saying the air strikes were an attempt to "divert attention from the successive victories" of its troops against rebel forces, particularly the recapture of the town of Yabroud, north of Damascus, over the weekend.

1. Thanks for post, Malaise.

We so need wiser heads in charge of all that is going on and hope they are working to try to deescalate these conflicts before someone on one side or the other, ignites a flame they won't be able to put out.

2. Why are you ignoring the preceding attack on the Israeli soldiers?

why can't it be said that Syria is the one taking advantage of Ukraine?
