A missile launched from Syria struck southern Israel early Thursday, setting off air raid sirens near the country's top-secret nuclear reactor.
In response, it said it attacked the missile launcher and air-defense systems in neighbouring Syria.

WNU Editor: The Syrian missile that struck near Israel's Dimona nuclear reactor site was from a ground to air missile launched by Syria during an Israeli airstrike on the Golan Heights. This Syrian missile traveled a great distance over Israel before landing (shot down?) in southern Israel.

I doubt it was a stray ground to air missile, too coincidental
Bit of a click bait title here...
Israel is a small country, from the tip of the very north to south can be driven in 9 hours and 90 minutes east to west.
Everything is close to Dimona.
The missile exploded mid air (not a ground impact) and 40km from Dimona....
beautiful clickbait, this missile was from Hamas but the Israeli army has the best equipment in the world
Hardly Hamas, wrong direction
300km from Damascus and near target, that was no stray round
