DAMASCUS, May 18 (Xinhua) -- The Syrian air defenses intercepted "strange objects" coming from the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights on Saturday, state news agency SANA reported.
The air defenses were triggered in the southern region in the Quneitra province near the Golan Heights, SANA said without further details.
The incident came a day after SANA reported that the air defenses on Friday evening intercepted "luminous objects" coming from Israel.
The Syrian army said that the air defenses were triggered by "enemy targets" coming from the direction of the southern province of Quneitra.
Israel has repeatedly targeted Syrian sites on the pretext that it was targeting sites belonging to Iran-backed militia such as the Lebanese Hezbollah group.
