Israeli tanks bombed two sites inside what the army described as a demilitarized zone in Syria, claiming that the sites violated a ceasefire agreement concluded half a century ago between the two countries.
The two sites, which are used by the Syrian army, are considered, according to the Israeli army, a “clear violation” of the 1974 ceasefire.
The Army did not provide additional information about the sites or when they were built.
In Syria, the pro-government Sham Radio reported that the Israeli army bombed an area on the edge of the Golan Heights in the village of Hadar. She added that there were no casualties.
The 1974 ceasefire agreement established a separation zone between Israeli and Syrian forces, under which a United Nations peacekeeping force was stationed there.

The agreement officially ended the 1973 war. This month, Israel commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of the war, according to the Hebrew calendar.
Also Thursday, Syrian media reported that Israeli drones targeted two people on a motorcycle in the Syrian capital, Damascus.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said that the Israeli raid killed two members of the Iran-backed armed Palestinian Jihad movement near the village of Beit Jinn in southern Syria.
Al-Jihad member, Ismail Abu Mujahid, denied the killing of any of the group’s members in southern Syria. The Israeli army refused to comment on the news.
