Israeli forces shot down a Syrian warplane Tuesday after the fighter jet infiltrated Israeli airspace while conducting a mission near the Golan Heights, reports Fox News.
The Syrian aircraft flew over one mile into the Jewish state’s territory before it was destroyed by a pair of Patriot Missiles confirmed a spokesperson for the country’s military.
“Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus said in a news conference the jet crashed in the Southern Golan Heights on the Syrian side. He added the Israeli military has sent numerous warnings to prevent anyone from violating its airspace,” writes Fox.
This is the second incident involving the IDF and a Syrian warplane; the first time was in September 2014 when the Israeli military shot down a Russian-manufactured jet after it infiltrated the Golan Heights.
