Israel strikes targets in Syria after missile lands near nuclear reactor The Israel Defence Force said the missile was a Syrian surface-to-air rocket and exploded in the Negev region in the south of the country. There were no immediate reports of any injuries or damage in Israel. In response to the missile launch, the IDF said they have attacked several missile batteries in Syria including the one which fired the projectile. Israel's Army Radio also reported a missile had been fired at Israeli aircraft during an earlier strike, and overshot its target.
