After deadly attack, Israel weighing options against Syria

Mohammed Karkara, from the town of Arraba in the Lower Galillee, was killed in the attack and his father, a civilian contractor, and two others were injured after their vehicle exploded while delivering water to workers on the border fence.

Military officials said the car was hit by anti-tank fire, though one rebel commander told the Times of Israel it was possible the regime had targeted the car with a heat-seeking missile.

Some Israeli experts said the area from which the anti-tank rocket was fired is under the control of Syrian rebels, not the Assad regime.

In response, Israeli tanks fired at Syrian army positions.
