Shooting erupted on the Israel-Syria cease-fire demarcation line Saturday for the first time in months. Syrian units opened fire with mortars into Israel-held territory three miles north of Kuneitra, an Army spokesman said. Israeli units returned the fire which went on intermittently for 25 minutes. There were no Israeli casualties.
