A senior Israeli officer and a soldier were killed Tuesday evening after their self-propelled artillery vehicle overturned during a military drill in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights. Four other soldiers were also injured.
Consequently the Israeli army halted all exercises until next Sunday and launched an investigation into the incident.
According to a preliminary probe the armored vehicle fell over into a ditch on the side of a road which was between six and eight meters deep killing the two soldiers.
