Samadanieh Al Sharqiyah
Samadanieh al-Sharqiyeh (Arabic: صمدانية الشرقية) is a village in the Quneitra Governorate of southern Syria. It is south of the towns of Khan Arnabah and Madinat al-Baath, and near the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.
Attacks
During the Syrian civil war, Samadanieh al-Sharqiyeh became a site of clashes between forces loyal to the Assad regime and the opposition in 2017.
After a stray mortar shell from fighting in Syria landed in an open area in the northern Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, the Israeli Air Force targeted Assad-regime forces in Samadanieh al-Sharqiyeh, which caused damage and destroyed mortar launchers.
