The Israel Defense Forces said it launched airstrikes targeting a group of militants near its Syrian border Sunday night.

It was not immediately known from which group the men belonged, but Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said four Syrian soldiers were killed by a missile fired from Golan Heights.
