Initial investigation of the incident shows that the explosion occurred while the soldiers noticed movement nearby the fence and went to check the area. After they left their armored vehicle, the blast occurred and they were hit by shrapnel.

In response, the IDF attacked with artillery fire and missiles "Tammuz" at the posts and positions of the Syrian army. Kuneitra factors reported that IDF shelling aimed outposts of the Syrian army in the city of Khan Arnaba. The IDF reported that they identified vulnerable targets.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the incident at the entrance to the faction meeting, and said: "Shortly before the IDF were hit by a cargo in the Golan Heights. I would like to send my best wishes and a speedy recovery to the wounded soldiers. Border with Syria recently filled with Hezbollah and jihadists, and this poses a new challenge to Israel. In recent years, we were able to keep quiet in front of civil war in Syria, and here we will act firmly to maintain the security of Israel."
