Amman: Jordan's army announced that a rocket exploded Saturday evening and its debris fell in Jordanian territory near the border with Syria without causing casualties or damage.
It came as the Zionist army announced the launch of artillery strikes in Syria in response to rocket fire from there that landed in the occupied Golan Heights.
"At 10:25 pm (1925 GMT) on Saturday evening, a rocket exploded in the air in the Wadi Aqraba area adjacent to the Syrian border, leading to its debris falling in the same area," a Jordanian army statement said.
It added that the debris "did not cause any casualties or damage", noting that a team from the royal engineering corps was inspecting the site of the incident.
The Zionist army had announced the Saturday-Sunday overnight strikes in response to Syrian rocket fire in the latest escalation of clashes in the region.
The surge in violence and unrest comes as the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan, Jewish Passover and Christian Easter coincide.
