Details
Yesterday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a briefing on Mount Hermon on Syrian territory, a strategic location overlooking Damascus.
In his statement, Netanyahu said: “We will remain in this important place until another agreement is found that guarantees Israel's security.
For reference
Israel seized a strip of land in southern Syria along the border with the Golan Heights a few days after rebel groups overthrew Assad last week.
On Sunday, Israel pledged to double its population in the occupied Golan Heights, saying that threats from Syria remain.
Rebel leader Ahmad al-Sharaa said on Saturday that Israel is using false pretenses to justify its attacks on Syria.
Reminded
The IDF launched a massive air strike on military targets in the Syrian province of Tartus, destroying missile depots. The explosions were so powerful that they caused a magnitude 3 earthquake.
U.S. officials report a buildup of Turkish troops and artillery along the border with Syria near the town of Kobani. The situation is reminiscent of the events of 2019 before the previous Turkish invasion.
