No injuries reported from attack, says army

The Israeli army said late Friday that a drone was fired from Syria and landed in an open area in the occupied Golan Heights.

It said air-raids sirens were activated but no injuries were reported from the attack.

No group has claimed responsibility for the strike.

The last drone fired from Syria was in early September.

Regional tensions have escalated because of Israel's brutal offensive on the Gaza Strip, which has killed more than 42,100 victims, mostly women and children, following an attack last year by the Palestinian resistance group, Hamas.

The conflict spread to Lebanon with Israel launching strikes across the country, which have killed more than 1,351 victims and injured an excess of 3,800 since Sept. 23.

Despite international warnings that the Middle East region was on the brink of a regional war amid Israel's relentless attacks on Gaza and Lebanon, Tel Aviv expanded the conflict by launching a ground invasion into southern Lebanon on Oct. 1.
