Two Israeli soldiers killed in combat, military says

Israel's military announced on Friday that two of its soldiers from the Golani Brigade had been killed in combat, and two others severely wounded.

Israeli media reported that the two soldiers were killed in a drone attack launched from Iraq at the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.

The Golan Heights were captured from Syria by Israel in the 1967 Middle East war and annexed in a move not recognised by most countries.
