They were 2 red dots moving quickly in the sky at night

I saw in the night 2 red points coming in the south of Beirut going up to the sky. At the beginning i thought it was some kind of firework to celebrate the year end but they kept on going up without explodind. Their path was ireegular as if yhey were turning around. They kept on ging up in the sky for aound one minute and then they began moving for another one minute towards my direction. When they were above my head they slowly fainted in the darkness of the sky. They were certainley not fireworks because they kept on for 2 minutes without exploding. They can be airplanes bcause their depature from earth was very very quick.the color did not change at any time
