Israeli military responds to tank fire from Syria

The military says no injuries have been reported from Wednesday's tank fire. It says it struck "a post belonging to the Syrian regime."
Israel has largely remained on the sidelines of the war in Syria, but it has carried out reprisals on Syrian positions when errant fire has crossed the frontier.
