Israeli forces enter southern Syria’s Quneitra countryside

The Israeli army has entered the Quneitra countryside in southern Syria.

According to Syria’s state news agency, SANA, Israeli troops backed by two tanks and four military vehicles advanced into the town of Jubata al-Khashab and set up a checkpoint on the road to Ain al-Bayda in northern Quneitra.

Syria has repeatedly condemned Israel’s incursions and said it remains committed to the 1974 Disengagement Agreement, which established a buffer zone between the two sides.

Syria says Israel has conducted more than 1,000 air strikes and 400 cross-border raids since December. Since the fall of President Bashar al-Assad’s government that month, Israel has expanded its occupation of the Golan Heights into the demilitarised zone.
