An Israeli plane accidentally launched a missile at Syrian territory in late June, according to a report by News 12 Monday evening.

The Israeli Air Force had sent the plane to investigate a suspicious target on the Golan Heights near the Syrian border when the pilot fired a missile at the target, which was later discovered to have been a false alarm.

The pilot, who serves in the reserves, was suspended for a short time before returning to active duty.
