JERUSALEM (JTA) — The Iron Dome anti-missile system fired for the first time on the Syrian border after mortar shells from Syria was launched at the Golan Heights.

Two mortar shells fired from Syria landed on the Golan on Wednesday. The explosives likely were unintentional, according to the Israel Defense Forces’ spokesman.

No damages or injuries were reported.

The mortars may have been fired in celebration of Syrian President Basher Assad’s electoral victory.

Several mortars were fired on Israel from Syria on June 2, with one explosive landing near an Israeli army outpost on Mount Hermon. The Israeli military responded by firing artillery in the direction of the launching site,
