3Syrian tanks crossed into the demilitarized zone in the Golan Heights today, the first such breach in 40 years. Israel’s immediate response was to register disapproval with the UN, which may indicate they don’t view this as a pressing or threatening issue just yet. No indication has been given as to Syria’s motivation for the incident. The effects of the Syrian civil war have been felt in Israel of late, as misfired shells have detonated within their borders. source
