The Israeli military reported on Sunday that fighter jets intercepted an unidentified hostile aircraft that entered the occupied Syrian Golan's airspace from Syria. No additional details were provided.

"In response to alarms about the incursion of a hostile aircraft in Golan a short time ago, IOF personnel identified an 'aerial threat' entering Israeli airspace from Syria," a statement issued by the Israeli occupation forces read. 

Earlier, alarm sirens were activated in regions of the occupied southern Golan.

On Thursday, Syrian media reported the activation of air defenses over Damascus to counter Israeli airstrike.

Syria's state-run SANA news agency reported damage from an Israeli airstrike in southern Syria.

According to a military source, air defenses intercepted "most" missiles launched by Israeli fighter jets from the Golan Heights, resulting in "material losses."

The report does not provide details on the targets.

The strikes occurred a day after reports of the reopening of Damascus International Airport following repeated Israeli aggressions.

Last night, Al Mayadeen's sources reported that an aerial attack struck near the city of al-Bukamal, in the countryside of Deir Ezzor, eastern Syria near the border with Iraq, which resulted in the martyrdom of seven people and the injury of others.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent mentioned that the aggression targeted the al-Hajana building and Badr Hospital in the southern part of the city. 

On its part, the Israeli occupation military said it carried out rocket strikes on Syria after two rockets allegedly fired from Syrian territory fell into occupied lands, triggering sirens to sound.

'Israel' hostility could result in regional war, Syria says

Syria asked the Secretary General of the United Nations and the President of the UN Security Council to take action to put an end to the hostile policies of the Israeli occupation, which might lead to a regional escalation that would threaten regional and international peace.

The Syrian Foreign Ministry sent out two copies of one letter to both the Secretary General of the United Nations and the UN Security Council, both of which were discussing the Israeli occupation's aggression on December 25, which manifested in an airstrike that martyred a senior Iranian commander working in the Iranian embassy in Damascus.

The airstrike that killed senior IRGC commander Seyyed Razi Mousavi is a hostile act of aggression that "constitutes a flagrant violation of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations."

"This brutal Israeli aggression against the sovereignty of the Syrian territories is part of the occupation authorities’ attempt to expand and escalate their aggression in the region and to cover up war crimes, genocide, crimes against humanity and brutal massacres committed daily against the defenseless Palestinian people," the letter read.
