Israeli military claims it has shot down a Syrian fighter jet that allegedly "infiltrated" its air space over the occupied Golan Heights.
The military statement said on Tuesday that two Patriot missiles were launched at the Sukhoi jet after it crossed 2km "into Israeli territory".
Crew's condition was unclear, the Israeli army said.
Syrian state media said the plane was targeted while conducting raids in the Syrian air space in southern Syria.
"The Israeli enemy confirms its support for the armed terrorist groups and targets one of our warplanes, which was striking their groups in the area of Saida on the edge of the Yarmouk Valley in Syrian air space," Syrian news agency SANA quoted a military source as saying.
