The Lebanese Movement, Hezbollah, told the United Nations (UN) that the incident in the City of Majdal Shams in Israel-controlled Golan Heights was related to an Israeli interceptor missile that crashed on its territory, according to the Axios portal.

However, according to an online media report, the Israeli military denied that there had been such an incident.

According to the Israeli military, 12 young people and children were killed on Saturday (27/7) in an attack on the Golan Heights.

Hezbollah denied involvement in the attack. However, Israeli officials began to claim that the war against Hezbollah and Lebanon would soon take place.

As of 1967, the Golan Heights is part of the Quneitra Province of Syria, which is mostly inhabited by Druze -- an Arab ethnic society.

During the Six Day War in 1967, as well as the fourth war of Arab-Israel in 1973, the two-thirds of this strategic region was captured by Israel.

In 1981, the Jewish country unilaterally declared sovereignty over the region. However, the UN Security Council did not recognize the decision, and considered the Golan Heights as Syrian territory.
