JERUSALEM - Troops ambushed four militants as they planted bombs along Israel's boundary with Syria around midnight, the Israeli military said early Monday , amid heightened tensions along Israel's frontiers.

The latest event took place near Tel Fares, in the southern Golan Heights, in the same spot at which Israel had operated a field hospital to provide medical care for Syrian civilians during the Syrian civil war under the so-called Operation Good Neighbour, which is now defunct. Israel held Syria responsible for any hostile activity emanating from its territory, he said. Syria did not immediately comment on the Israeli reports.

Israel had cast the raid as an expected, and failed, retaliation attempt from Hezbollah for the killing of one of its operatives in a strike in Syria about a week before that was attributed to Israel. Hezbollah said that retaliation for the killing in Syria was still coming.
