In another incident in the border area, an official at the UN said that a UN car was exposed to fire from the Israeli side on the border with Lebanon.

Lebanese security sources said that Israeli soldiers opened fire over the Lebanese cars on Kafer Kala - Odeisah road under pretext that they were exposed to fire from the Lebanese side. Security sources said the Israeli forces bombarded the outskirts of Kafer Shouba border village. An Israeli military spokesman denied that the Israeli forces bombarded objectives in south Lebanon.

It said that "the Zionist aggression against Syria is a very flagrant violation of all red lines and the bases of the conflict since almost three decades."
