Syrian air defenses intercepted a number of ‘Israeli’ missiles over Quneitra province in the country's southwest and the central province of Homs, reports said.

"At 00:30 on Thursday our air defense monitored ‘Israeli’ warplanes coming from northern occupied Palestine towards Sidon, and several missiles were fired from Lebanese airspace towards the central area," Syria's official news agency SANA quoted a military source as saying.

The source added that the missiles were intercepted successfully, and failed to hit any of their targets.

Another report by Xinhua news agency stated that the Syrian air defense intercepted ‘Israeli’ missiles in Homs province in the early hours of Thursday.

According to the report, the missiles were fired from ‘Israeli’ warplanes over the ‘Israeli’-occupied Golan Heights and from Lebanese airspace.

The Tel Aviv regime mostly keeps quiet about the attacks on Syrian territories which many view as knee-jerk reaction to Syrian government’s increasing success in confronting terrorism in country.

The Zionist entity has been a main supporter of terrorist groups that have opposed the Syrian government since militancy erupted in Syria in March 2011.

Syrian government forces have taken back many areas once controlled by the terrorist groups. The government and allied forces are currently busy fighting last bastions of militants in the northwestern province of Idlib and areas in the neighboring Aleppo province.
