We report on activity in hard X-rays of the supergiant fast X-ray transient SAX J1818.6-1703 (in't Zand et al. 1998, IAUC #6840; Negueruela & Smith 2006, ATEL #831; in't Zand et al. 2006, ATEL #915). Since April 12, 2008, the IBIS/ISGRI instrument on board INTEGRAL detected several outbursts each lasted less than one day with increasing intensity. During the last outburst the 18-45 keV flux from the source reached a level of 40 mCrab.
