"Israel" shot down a Syrian fighter jet on Tuesday as it flew over the ceasefire line into the "Israeli"-occupied sector of the Golan Heights, army radio reported.

"This Syrian aircraft, apparently a MiG-21 , which was approaching the "Israeli" side of the Golan, was shot down by a surface-to-air Patriot missile," the radio said.

The wreckage of the aircraft landed on the Syrian-controlled side of the strategic plateau, it added.
