Residents of the Golan Heights were sent racing for their bomb shelters again Tuesday morning when the Color Red incoming rocket alert siren activated.

Three mortar shells exploded in the northern part of the region, according to the IDF.

The shelling was allegedly not the result of a deliberate attack, but rather were errant fore as a result of the internal fighting in Syria, the IDF Spokespersons Unit said.

Forces are searching the area to determine the landing site of the shells and to assess any damage.

No injuries have been reported.
