08-10-2012 12:00 AM


Ammon News - AMMONNEWS - An errant missile shell launched by the Syrian Army landed in the town of Turra, near the Jordanian northern border city of Ramtha on Monday.

A security source confirmed in statements to Ammon News that the missile landed in a remote area in Turra, noting that no injuries were reported from the missile strike.

Several missiles had landed previously in Turra, about 90 kilometers northwest of Amman, as a result of clashes in the Syrian border town of Daraa between the Syrian regime army and the Free Syrian Army.

In September, five rocket shells struck near inhabited areas in Ramtha, and about 9 more shells hit areas nearby the borders. One child was injured in the incident that caused major havoc and fear among border-area residents.
