BEIRUT (Dispatches) – A fighter jet belonging to the Zionist regime has targeted positions in Syria’s occupied Golan Heights after a Patriot missile allegedly intercepted and shot down an unmanned aerial vehicle purportedly operated by the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance movement.
The aerial assaults targeted a number of areas in Syria’s strategic southwestern region of Quneitra near the border with Israeli-controlled Palestinian territories, Beirut-based and English-language Daily Star reported.
Earlier, the Israeli media outlets claimed that Zionist troops had struck a reconnaissance drone as soon as it had entered the skies over the occupied Golan Heights.  
The occupying regime’s Military Spokesman Brigadier General Ronen Manelis said the Hezbollah-operated drone took off from Damascus International Airport.
During the past few years, the regime has frequently attacked military targets in Syria in what is considered as an attempt to prop up terrorist groups that have been suffering heavy defeats in their fight against Syrian government forces.
