Local military sources indicated that three missiles were launched from the Golan Heights, causing significant damage to the surrounding area, including at least 20 vehicles.

The airstrike underscores the ongoing hostilities and complex geopolitical dynamics in the region, raising concerns over the safety of civilians caught in the crossfire of military operations.
