IDF does not confirm casualty count, says soldiers firing at infiltrators lower bodies when warnings not heeded; armed men seen on Syrian side of border; protesters set off 4 land mines at border in Kunetra.
Syrian television on Sunday reported that 14 people were killed and 225 injured along the Syria-Israel border in the Golan Heights near Majdal Shams, reportedly from IDF fire. The IDF spokesperson said that the only information it had on deaths on the border were Syrian reports and therefore, it could not confirm the number of people killed or if there were any deaths.
After several hours of clashes, IDF began allowing Red Cross teams access to the Syrian border area in order to evacuate wounded protesters, Channel 10 reported.
