Previously, the militants used the following tactics: they attacked the positions of the SAA, after which they returned fire from there. Eventually, Israeli artillery (or aviation), striking the CAA. Israel said that the ammunition hit Israeli territory, and they fired back at the positions of the Syrian army, "since the official Damascus is responsible for any events taking place in Syrian territory."
