The Israeli military says it has launched artillery attacks on Syria after several rockets were fired from Syrian territory towards northern Israel, none of which caused damage or casualties.

The cross-border exchanges early on Sunday came as violence escalates on multiple fronts, including in Gaza, Lebanon, occupied East Jerusalem and the occupied West Bank.

There was no immediate comment from the Syrian government.

The Israeli military said it had launched artillery strikes and a drone against the rocket launchers in Syria.

There were two rounds of rockets launches from Syrian territory in the early hours of Sunday, it said. The first involved three rockets, one of which landed in a field in the Israeli-annexed Golan Heights. The second launch, which also involved three rockets, set off sirens in northern Israel. There were no reports of casualties.
